Generally the BIOS takes care of that if you don't have "PnP OS"
set there. Most modern BIOSes allow you to assign specific IRQs to
specific PCI slots. Look at the documentation for your BIOS (I
hope you do have the documentation).

In any case, I've shared IRQs between ISDN and other cards with
no problems. The driver specifies that the IRQ may be shared.
