FC5 & IBM xSeries 100

Hi all,

I have installed FC5 to an brand new IBM xSeries 100 type 8486 server.
On short trials It seems to work almost normally except:

1)  On boot I always get following messages on console:

PCI: Cannot allocate resource region 7 of bridge 0000:00:01.0
PCI: Cannot allocate resource region 8 of bridge 0000:00:01.0
PCI: Cannot allocate resource region 9 of bridge 0000:00:01.0
PCI: Cannot allocate resource region 7 of bridge 0000:00:1c.1
PCI: Cannot allocate resource region 8 of bridge 0000:00:1c.1
PCI: Cannot allocate resource region 9 of bridge 0000:00:1c.1

2)  On short trial the server seems to work quite normally except when I
try to start X.  startx (or gdm at runlevel 5) freezes most of the times
(not always) and leaves screen blank and in unusable state.  I still can
login to the box through ssh (Server works slowly in this state).
Following gets logged during X crash:

kernel: [drm] Initialized drm 1.0.1 20051102
kernel: ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:0a:04.0[A] -> GSI 16 (level, low) ->

kernel: Disabling IRQ #20

This has happened with every kernel available to FC5 so far.

Since this is a box I promised one person to setup as a linux server and
it has been already sitting here one month unused, I wonder if anybody
knows if it is safe to put it under 'production-use' (If no X is used
and just acting as a pure mail/web server)?

I have tried some boot options (e.g. acpi=off pci=noacpi acpi=noirq, but
on the kernels I tried they did not help).  

Added comments on error #186557 

BR,

Jouni
