ok, reconfigured the irqs & everything is excellent.  thanks very much.

if you have the time could you explain why even though i don't have irq 9
configured that is what is used ?  it seems to be the irq for the pci
bridge, does it also need to allocate an additional to map to the card
itself ?

thanks again, appreciated.
