WL 5:16.38 (irq9: fxp0 acpi0) I'll see if I can shift the interrupts around in the bios but I don't think I can since fxp is onboard. Perhaps acpi doesn't do anything to check whether the interrupt belongs to it or not and so when an fxp interrupt arrives the acpi handler gets called. -- Paul Richards <paul@freebsd-services.com>
