Summary: IRQ conflict on VIA Apollo VP2/97-based motherboard between
dual controllers on NCR 53c875 (Diamond Fireport 40). Kernel version is
2.4.5-ac9.

Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 0
00:07.1 IDE interface: VIA Technologies, Inc. Bus Master IDE (rev 06)
(prog-if 8a [Master SecP PriP])
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64

When I attempt to mobprobe the ncr53c8xx module, I get the following
output:
SCSI subsystem driver Revision: 1.00
PCI: Found IRQ 11 for device 00:0b.0
IRQ routing conflict in pirq table for device 00:0b.0
IRQ routing conflict in pirq table for device 00:0b.1
It appears that something is getting confused and doesn't want to allow
the two controllers of this card to share the same IRQ.
Here is the relevent output from 'lspci -v':

There are no other devices using IRQ10. Is this a lost cause? This
controller and drives in their current configuration can be moved to an
Intel based machine and works flawlessly. I have yet to see this
controller work on this VIA motherboard.
Any assistance is appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike.
