You certainly can't have ISA and PCI devices sharing the IRQ, but it is up to the operators to make sure it doesn't happen. Win95 often works great in that situation, up until you address the rogue ISA device. Or maybe it doesn't even have a driver installed for the rogue device. > ---------- > > > Sincerely Yours, > > Simon Shapiro > Shimon@Simon-Shapiro.ORG Voice: 503.799.2313 > > Tom To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
