it depends on the card, not the controller, i guess. after looking at the code, i've also found that the irq probing is implemented when CONFIG_ISA is enabled. (in the case of 2.6, it's another conditiion. but it's enabled only when CONFIG_ISA is set, so CONFIG_ISA is mandatory in any case.) anyway, it's really good to know. your full two days are not useless at all! :) Takashi ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.
