The interrupt is *always* fired by the PVR - it is the VBLANK - ie essentially screen refresh. It is *never* generated by the maple bus. However, the maple bus is/can be hardware synced - which means once that setting is made then the hardware will *always* be polled on the VBLANK. In other words there is no need to check which device is interrupt is for, because it is *always* going to be for both of them. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
