I have just purchased a Xircom RealPort 100BTX pcmcia card, which
works fine with my new Dell Inspiron 3700 (3.4-RELEASE, no PAO).
However, I found a very strange phenomenon: just after booting the
system up, and before inserting the Xircom card, this is the output
of "vmstat -i":

interrupt      total      rate
clk0 irq0       11354       99
wdc0 irq14       1093        9
atkbd0 irq1       243        2
ppc0 irq7           1        0
Total           12691      111

And, just after the card is inserted, detected by pccardd and initialized,
the same command says:

interrupt      total      rate
clk0 irq10      16743      105
wdc0 irq14       1170        7
atkbd0 irq1       323        1
ppc0 irq7           1        0
Total           18237      109

IRQ0 has dissapeared!!!! After that, the interrupts coming from both
the system timer and the Ethernet card are accounted to IRQ10.

What happened? Any ideas?

Cheers,
