How can I change interrupts (IRQ numbers) in SuSE 9.1? (Please...)
I am using a system based on an Abit NF7-M mobo with Award BIOS. I had noticed that I had a number of items allocated to the same IRQs, but this didn't seem to be much of a problem. Today, though, I lost Ethernet after connecting a USB Zip drive. I spent some time searching for the cause before I remembered the shared interrupts, umounted the drive, and Ethernet returned. The Bios shows nine IRQs available (3, 4, 5, 7, 10, 11, 12, 14, 15), but only five of these appear to be used. 14 and 15 are allocated to IDE, while 10 is shared by the VGA and USB controllers, 5 by the sound card and USB and 11 by my NIC, SMBus and USB again.
How can I re-allocate IRQs to avoid conflicts? The relevant sections of the lspci listing are given below.
Thanks,
Rob.
