Suere enough, the evil USB's AND you NIC are on the same IRQ. Also, if
possible, disable or don't load your parralel port when you're not using it,
which should free up another IRQ, as well as your USB drivers, if you
don't use them. My troubels have taught me that you should always have
your NIC on it's own IRQ, same with USB.
Just one quick question, how to tell linux not to load parport during boot-up?
If your BIOS supports assigning IRQ's do that, or you may need to move cards
arounds. Many mobo's have an unavoidable relationship between the
onboard devices IRQ's and a particular slot, could be any slot, you'll have
to move things around to find out which. The frustarting part of this is some
IRQ's always go unused, no matter what you do, leaving you less to work with.
I don't know whether ivtv or cx88 cards mind if they share IRQ's or not, or if
there are other devices that don't mind. If someone else has experience with
this, let us know.
