maybe, if i knew what to look for! ;-)

comparing a 3.2.0 (jack fails) boot with a 3.1-6 (jack is ok) boot, i
noticed two things:

3.2.0: NMI watchdog is active (disabling it via kernel params didn't fix
jack)

BOTH show this:
Sep 15 10:52:17 palnote kernel: [ 0.810792] pci 0000:00:1c.3: PCI INT D
-> GSI 19 (level, low) -> IRQ 19
Sep 15 10:52:17 palnote kernel: [ 1.391566] firewire_ohci 0000:0d:00.3:
PCI INT D -> GSI 19 (level, low) -> IRQ 19
Sep 15 10:52:17 palnote kernel: [ 1.567717] ahci 0000:00:1f.2: PCI INT
B -> GSI 19 (level, low) -> IRQ 19
Sep 15 10:52:17 palnote kernel: [ 11.827204] snd_hdsp 0000:05:00.0: PCI
INT A -> GSI 19 (level, low) -> IRQ 19

so, perhaps the hdsp sharing IRQ 19 with ohci and ahci is not a good
thing?? but that's the same in BOTH boots, so i dunno....

anything else i should look for, or any other info you might be interested
in seeing?

big thanks for any help on this, fernando!!

cheers!
