The short answer is "it uses any IRQ you want it to", it being a plug-and-pray device. Slightly longer answer: install the isapnptools package. Run 'pnpdump'; this will give you a listing of all of the PnP devices on your system, with some configurable parameters. Save the result into /etc/isapnp.conf and edit to taste. You can run '/etc/init.d/isapnp start' to test the results; that file will also be used to configure your PnP devices to your liking on every boot. -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.mit.edu/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.
