Carlos, could you please run the following script as root:

http://redhat.com/~mingo/misc/probe-ports.sh

and send us the resulting probe-ports.txt file?

This script will probe all unused ports as per /proc/ioports and will
list "suspect" IO port areas: ones that do not produce the expected 0xff
default reply from unclaimed IO ports. Magic chipset register areas can
potentially be mapped this way.

[ CAREFUL: This probes IO ports which might in theory trigger various
nastiness such as lockups. I this on a few boxes and the script
worked, but save any work in case you get lockups. ]

Ingo
