I have no mouse connected to this system, so the BIOS should turn the port off, but anyway there should be aboslutely no problem with IRQ 11 and 15. > Perhaps its better to assume that the combination of your ELSA PnP card > in your non-PnP-BIOS machine does simply not work. Hm, no, I don't think it's a matter of combination, since I tried three different machines: _ an IBM PS VP 486/66 20MB RAM non-pnp (the one I've been referring to since the beginning, and the one I'd like to use the card on); _ a computer I built which has a MSI motherboard (Award PnP BIOS) with a K6/233 and 64MB of RAM: the symptoms are the same (but on this machine the card works perfectly with OS/2); _ a computer I have which has an Asus motherboard (Award PnP BIOS again) with a PII/350 and 128MB RAM: always the same symptoms (again, on this machine the card works with NT). The only difference I notice is that with a PnP BIOS if I choose PnP OS=No I have no need to userconfig the card (but that should be obvious). > I'm sorry, but i have simply no idea anymore. Well, thanks a lot anyway to you and the others who replied for the support. I'm currently wondering if I should try upgrading my system from 3.4R to stable or current or just wait for 4.0R or 3.5R, before I switch to Debian; after all I had severe problems with both ppp and pppd with my modem with 3.3R, problems no one was able to solve and no one else ever had, it seems; they just "magically" went away when I switched to a 3.4R kernel...
