The intline registers are correct - that's what used to run since years.
What has the kind of bridge to do with it?

Is it shown with a boot -v or how can I get it?
The board has 4 slots and the usual bunch of southbridge devices.

It never worked if FreeBSD decides which int to use.
I have to disable routing in pci.c to get back to intline entries.

What do you mean with "when we were re-routing all the time"?
If I don't get it wrong we are re-routing all the time and
take the result if it's a valid int.
