I had the same problem with a non Aladin system. I believe the problem is that Takanori's examples no longer work since changes were made to pcisupport.c.
Why do I say this ? Because Takanori said so in email to me. I dont understand how it all works but if I show you Takanori's comments maybe you guys will. START Takanori's comments =========================================== Commited code on pcisupport.c from 1.88 to 1.89 will break it. If "intpm.h" is not included,chipset probe code is used instead of the driver probe code. P.S I have forgotten to enclose unused variable in #undef ENABLE_ALART with #ifdef ENABLE_ALART - #endif ,so the variable may deleted when it was commited. And currently ENABLE_ALART code will not work properly.
