more Ali pci strangeness

[Erik McKee]

Having fun with pci on my desktop.  MB is an asus with Ali chipset, basically
the same chipset ppl were having problems with on their laptops.  My problem is
it spews error messages on bootup about my PCI and suggests that I try
pci=biosirq.  This makes the messages slightly better.  I am attatching a dmesg
with that parameter turned on.  This box has 2 nics and a linksys wireless nic
as well as a soundblaster live soundcard.  I haven't tried the usb on this, but
I do know that the sound had problems with finding an interrupt.  Compliled as
a module, the soundcard can't be found.  It's pci config space is all f's when
I look at lspci.  Anyway to fix this?

TIA
