Does it matter if I have several devices using the same interrupt number if all those devices are on the pci bus ? I've just build a new machine, and in the boot messages see the USB system and network card both reported with irq 11. If it does, how do I get them on different irq's ? Does FreeBSD permit irq sharing ?
