Saw that.

If you lspci looks more or less like the one below, it may not be a
true coincidence:
00:00.0 Host bridge: ALi Corporation M1541 (rev 04)
00:01.0 PCI bridge: ALi Corporation M1541 PCI to AGP Controller (rev 04)
00:03.0 Bridge: ALi Corporation M7101 PMU
00:07.0 ISA bridge: ALi Corporation M1533 PCI to ISA Bridge [Aladdin IV] (rev c)
00:09.0 Ethernet controller: Standard Microsystems Corp [SMC] 83C170QF (rev 08)
00:0a.0 Ethernet controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT86C100A [Rhine] (rev 06)
00:0b.0 Ethernet controller: 3Com Corporation 3c905C-TX/TX-M [Tornado] (rev 30)
00:0f.0 IDE interface: ALi Corporation M5229 IDE (rev c1)
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV250 [Radeon 9200 SE] )
01:00.1 Display controller: ATI Technologies Inc RV280 [Radeon 9200 SE] (Second)

It works but crashes are sometimes hard to recover and I suspect bad voodoo in
the two pci slots (next to eht eisa ones).
