Hi Wolfgang,

No, the 715/64 has a PA7100LC processor and thus is 32bit only machine.
I'm running a 32bit kernel too, but maybe 715/old (as yours) and 715/new
machines (as mine) work different. IIRC the 715/old has an ASP and the
715/new have a LASI chip. Maybe you could send me your whole dmsg
and I'll take a look again.

Greetings,
Helge
