This may not apply to your problem,

I am using a Tyan trinity 400 board with freebsd,

had an irq conflict with video 11 and nic 11

after much confusion, discovered nic would work in slot 3 or 4

but created conflict in slot 3, no conflict in slot 4.

Tyan web site states, "use slot 3 or 4 for nic..."
