The problems with 2.6.14-1.1776_FC5 where a know problem before i left
for vacation, and I assume that was fixed.

OK the debug message I see last is;
calling initcall 0xffffffff802127cb pci_init + 0x0/0x2b

I assume it is because of the messed up Shuttle BIOS (thank you Shuttle

kernels so i wonder why it stopped working now.

Anny idea where to start looking ?
