I am trying to configure my 2.2 BETA kernel to use my new Gravis Ultra Sound card. I know little or nothing about PC hardware, so please bear with me while I ask a few stupid questions. 1. Can I find out what IRQ's are used on my runing system by looking somewhere? /proc for instance? 2. What is the conflicts key word used for in the kernel config file? 3. Reading through /var/log/messages it appears the the folowing interupts are used. 1,3,4,5,6,7,11,14,16. Doest this mean that I can ue any of the remaining numbers under 16 as I seefit? Or are certain ones reserved for things like the system clock? 4. What would be a good IRQ to se for this card? The README suggest 11, but as you can see it's already used, and using it results in a kernel that will not boot :-( Thanks for the patience with my simplistic questions. -- Stan Brown stanb@netcom.com 404-996-6955 Factory Automation Systems Atlanta Ga. -- Look, look, see Windows 95.
