Hi all,

	I've installed a 3Com 3c509 (isa) in my computer, which uses irq 10,
the same irq as is used by the vga driver. Unfortunately, the card
does not have any jumpers or any other way to change the irq and base
address, and as far as I can tell, there is no way to make the vga
driver use a different irq.

I've tried using the network card, but I got extremely slow (net) response
and the terminal froze. (I was unable to type at the prompt, although
I could use the Alt+F2 combination to get another prompt and kill the
first session).

Is there a way I can get this to work?

Thanks,

	Michael
