Your pcic is probably on 3, so you only have irq 10 available for allocation. > Next I'm take out my soundcard from the kernel and try irq 5. You can't do that; the hardware is still connected to the IRQ line even if you don't have a driver enabled. If you're on -current or 3.1 you can try setting the pcic IRQ to 0 (see 'help tunables' in the loader) to free up IRQ 3. -- \\ Sometimes you're ahead, \\ Mike Smith \\ sometimes you're behind. \\ mike@smith.net.au \\ The race is long, and in the \\ msmith@freebsd.org \\ end it's only with yourself. \\ msmith@cdrom.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
