Hi,
I'm having trouble running down some irq (I think) conflicts on an old
system.
I have an old p5-200 mb (not sure which brand, don't care to open it up
*again* just now). I've got
pci uhci usb controller
sb16 (old) soundcard
3c509b isa nic
Adaptec 2940uw pci scsi controller
Linux says my interrupts (/proc/interrupts) are
0 timer
1 keyboard
2 cascade
7 soundblaster
9 eth0
11 aic7xxx
12 ps/2 mouse
13 fpu
14 ide0
But, the soundblaster will only work on irq 7 and I can't seem to make
the nic work on 9 or 10. I've disabled pnp on the nic using the
3c5x9cfg utility. I've tried about every other irq I can think of on
the card, and two or three work, but only at the expense of either the
soundcard and/or the usb controller. right now, forexample, i get sound
but no nic or usb controller. So, is there a way in the bios I can
rearrange things or free up irqs?
TIA
