Jan 16 07:03:23 server kernel: Disabling IRQ #177

==============================================================================

I spoke too soon, the problem wasn't fixed but I found the cause of the issue.

The above error occurs when you unplug the video cable from the onboard video.

As our machines are mainly headless terminals, this will not do at all.

I am going to retest with RHEL 6.

thanks,
