This is a volunteer project. You haven't bothered to work out how the project works, you won't provide the information requested and your attitude so far is hardly conducive to encouraging someone to assist. > I am serious about getting this issue resolved because I'm under the >gun myself.

FreeBSD has supported shared interrupts for as long as I can remember. The ISA bus does not support shared interrupts but that is nothing to do with FreeBSD. > If it does allow irq sharing, >then why isn't it working? Based on the information you have provided, your modem card is either broken or disabled (or possibly your motherboard/BIOS is broken). > And if it doesn't support irq sharing, then >why is FreeBSD assigning 2 devices to the same irq to begin with? FreeBSD does support shared interrupts on busses that support them and is assigning interrupts based on information from the hardware. --=20 Peter Jeremy --n2Pv11Ogg/Ox8ay5 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFFzNLf/opHv/APuIcRAuD2AJ44iFUD63t5nDoghOY7YVLVdLCGmgCdE9mq 4q94PNXaLQ17jXJy0syoui0= =vh+W -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --n2Pv11Ogg/Ox8ay5--
