As I understand it what is happening is that the PCI based cardbus controller is being hooked up to irq 11 and not used there, it is used in 82C146 compatability at irq 9. The net result is a wasted irq. I suspect that there is no way round this unless/until the 1131 is supported directly. I would be delighted to hear otherwise as I have a severe shortage of irq's on my box and I would love to get irq 11 back. ---------------------------------- E-Mail: Steve O'Hara-Smith Date: 01-Sep-99 Time: 14:53:32 This message was sent by XFMail ---------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
