In-Reply-To: <20000903184630.C41029@siafu.iconnect.co.ke> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, I was having a similar problem with my SCSI card (aha152x - an ISA card with jumpers) and I found out that while it worked in Windows, it didn't work in linux because linux was PnP'ing my network card to the same IRQ as my SCSI card. If that particular sound card uses a specific IRQ (11 in your case) and is ISA, you might be able to force your BIOS to reserve that IRQ for ISA only (not anything else) then the BIOS will assign USB to another IRQ.
