Subject:   Dedicating an interrupt to a PC-Card slot

Well, I decided to have some fun and see if I could get a Novatel Merlin
C-201 wireless modem running under FreeBSD. It seems I have run into a
bit of a roadblock. It appears that the C-201 will only speak, through
it's 16550 UART, at a speed of 230400. As such it need to have fast
interrupt support, which only seems possible with a dedicated interrupt.
ACPI and NEWCARD assigns the same interrupt to both of the Cardbus
bridges and to other PCI devices. 

Any suggestions how I might accomplish the assignment of a dedicated
interrupt? BTW, this device does work under Linux, Windows 2000, and
Windows 98SE.

Thanks in advance,
