Ok, I see ...

Thanks for sending this message log!

The problem is, that EISA and PCI use overlapping port regions,
and for the probe code, it appears as if there really was a PCI
device in slot 3. The value read is valid, and while no device
with that ID exists, the code can't possibly know.

I've got an idea for another test, which would find that there
isn't really a PCI bus in your system. But that test will need
to write into EISA address space ports, and while I can restore
the values previously read, I can't be sure that the device has
not been confused by the test ...

As soon as I have a patch ready, you'll receive it for testing.
