I also tried 3, after disabling the sio1 and winmodem stuff. And I removed this, and the LPT, and removed any references to 3/7 in my kernel. So my free set is now 3 7 9. I don't see "5" as free since its what I'm using for the pcic pcard0 pcard1 suite of entries in my kernel config. > At this point, I think you need to make sure that the pcic device > is working; you don't need any more free IRQs at the moment.

If I'm using irq 5 for the pcic, can I still use it inside the pccard framework for the daughter cards? If I have 3/5/7/9 notionally free, and am compiling a kernel, which is the best bet to pick for pcic, or do I leave it as irq? and let the kernel decide? cheers -George -- George Michaelson | APNIC Email: ggm@apnic.net | PO Box 2131 Milton QLD 4064 Phone: +61 7 3367 0490 | Australia Fax: +61 7 3367 0482 | http://www.apnic.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
