Hi there,

Thanks for that link, although I'm not sure exactly what you're pointing 
me at. I discovered last night (too late for me to post to LKML) that it 
was caused by a funny patch by Greg KH to mark most of the PCI symbols 
as EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL. Once backed out it works fine. Go figure.

Cheers,
Chris
