    Looks to me like the problem I had in Febuary, see the thread
    "epic100 in current -ac kernels" at
    linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org/msg28523.html">http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org/msg28523.html
    After I had upgraded my BIOS, the problems were gone and I stopped
    looking into it. The DMA mapping code first introduced in 2.4.0-ac2
    (smallest diff here) originally triggered the bug, which had different
    symptoms depending on the configuration of the chipset.
    Note that I have a VIA VT8363 (KT133) chipset while this is a VT82C595
    (VP2) chipset, so it is appearantly not limited to one very specific
    configuration.
