You are *still* using the PAO code. Only the nomads can help you there. However, bear in mind that you can "sort of" share IRQ 3, if the only other device on it is a faithful 8250 clone and its interrupt output is tristated off. > +pcic: controller I/O address 0x3e0 > +Card inserted, slot 0 The 'card inserted' message is printed as a result of a pcic interrupt, so the pcic itself is interrupting OK. So far so good. -- \\ Sometimes you're ahead, \\ Mike Smith \\ sometimes you're behind. \\ mike@smith.net.au \\ The race is long, and in the \\ msmith@freebsd.org \\ end it's only with yourself. \\
