Hi! I have the 2.2.5-Release box with Intel EtherExpress Pro/100 LAN card in it (the fxp0 device). Recently, I've decided to put 2nd card in my computer, so I've inserted the second EtherExpress card into free PCI slot. FreeBSD OS detects it as fxp1 device, I ifconfig it, but though it doesn't work. The problem is that both of those cards get the same irq, f.e. irq 12, and so only one of them (the fxp0 one) works, while fxp1 doesn't. Seems like cards request the same irq from BIOS, (I have Award BIOS) but I didn't find how can I change it. I've tried to assign irq's for them manually changing BIOS settins - it didn't help. Also (hm, maybe it was a bad idea) I've tried to put irq's for those cards into kernel config file and rebuilded kernel - it didn't help too. So if someone had the same problem and managed with it - please, tell me. Thanks in advance.
