Title: RE: IRQ Conflict

Joseph - I have a rather sketchy knowledge of these matters, but as I understand it, the PCI bus is designed so the computer can manage more devices than it has IRQs.  Through some software magic, devices with the same IRQ are able to work together on the PCI bus.  Windows does not like this, so it pretends to assign different IRQs to the different devices.  If you check the initial settings listed while the computer is booting up, you'll probably see that the CMOS agrees with Linux.  If you are having difficulty getting the two devices to work together, you might try to find a reason besides IRQs.   -Glenn.
