You got 2 devices per IRQ - which seems to be OK, as long as the card is using the PCI specs currently (unlike Sound Blaster Live which is not, for example)... You can set the Linux kernel to either read from the BIOS the IRQ map and assignment and will use it - or let Linux set it of it's own (or you both - select "any" when compiling the kernel).. Reminded me few months ago to see my machine with windows 2k - all the devices appeared to be on IRQ 9 and I couldn't change it ;) Hetz ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
