Is there any information you can give on your hardware and kernel configuration? It might be helpful in debugging this problem. So far, I have not been able to reproduce yet.

What these numbers mean? Do we expect slot_name for each pci device here? Some applications read these number as slot_name for pci device. For example, there is a Solstice SAS adapter on this system, when we dump detail information for this adapter, we got "Platform Location = 8".

In Ubuntu, these random numbers break some code in iprconfig. What is generating these in Ubuntu?
