Subject: Heads Up: X may not start after daily.0130

daily.0130 contains the fix for the following bug:

6798926 pci_autoconfig: PCI root-bus 'bus-range' property should be
initialized using _CRS when possible

... which reported a regression in nv106.  While there is no evidence that
the fix for 6798926 is incorrect, it appears to have uncovered a latent
issue in something integrated into the WOS in the meanwhile.

On some machines (so far, a Toshiba Tecra M5), X no longer starts after
BFUing to daily.0130 or later, and /dt/Xerrors contains:

      Primary device is not PCI

This issue is under active investigation.

A work-around for this is to BFU from the daily.0129
