@punishmenthurts @cybervegan Seriously, I get you.
I can't look at a single piece of misbehaving hardware without considering whether the IRQ or DMA might be wrong, and those haven't really been a problem since 2000 or so.
Like, I'm in France now, so obviously some things will be different, and for *those* things (the light switches, the water taps) I'm ok with making the adjustment. But computers? That used to be my thing. I used to *live* in the realm of technology.
And it's all so foreign to me, it's like going back 300 years in time and not understanding English.
