FC5 Can't see PCI devices

[jneher]

Hi,

I just installed FC5 on a dual-processor P3 machine and the installation went
fine except it says it can't see my video card (even though is using it at least for
the text install and boot bitmap) and it also doesn't see my 3COM 3C905 NIC.

When I login (at runlevel 3) and do an "lspci -v" nothing comes back telling me
it's not seeing my PCI video card or my NIC.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Jon

Try booting with the extra parameter acpi=off

This worked for me on my dual P3 in FC5 and ealier versions. Not sure what the deal is but with ACPI enabled linux cant figure out anything. Without everything works like a champ.
