S3 card = AGP video card and the sound card sharing the same irq is a common problem with most PC's. This is a PC bios thing. Most AGP vido cards do not need a irq assigned to it in the bios to work. Also try putting your sound card in different slot. You isdn card may look and behave like a generic nic card so don't get upset at what FBSD calls it. The main thing is that each card in your PC must have it's own bios assigned irq to work in FBSD. If you can not see each device with it's own irq in the PC's Bios summary display screen that pops up during the PC hardware post process them you must play with the PC's bio setup enviroment until you do. -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of mess-mate Sent: Friday, February 22, 2002 2:44 PM To: freebsd-questions-en Subject: Really suck with FreeBSD Yes I do. I'm not a newbie about Linux but the diffrence is GREATER than said in the doc of FBSD. First of all : My hardware is compatible with 1 (maybe) exception, my isdn card = Gazel DSS1, passive and siemens chipset. So here my troubles : Using 2 isa pnp cards (sound and isdn), at boot time the sound card is set to the same irq as my S3 card = 9 and the isdn card is recognised as a network-card with irp 6 = don't have any network-card on this box. The kernel is configured without a network-card. Configuring my kernel with the approprate sound irq = 3 or 12 don't help. Tryed everything, user advices, doc advices, nothing helps. Hadn't any pb by the install nor when installing an own kernel. Run FBSD 4.5 installed from a CD and boot from the MBR (lilo). Any help very appreciated. -- mess-mate To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
