With your current setup, your IDE channels, ethernet card and BRI card are all on seeperate interrupts, so you shouldn't have problems unless you will be making heavy use of USB devices.
 
It appears that you are using an Intel ICH5 based motherboard. The Intel ICH5 chipset supports IO-APIC. If you recompile your kernel with IO-APIC support each seperate device will get an interrupt of its own, and any potential interrupt problems should disappear.

Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Do I have to worry about interrupt sharing here?

Hello
 
I am using a Junghanns QuadBRI ISDN card - the module name is qozap.  If I like at my interrupt assignment, qozap is sharing interrupt 10 with libata and uhci_hcd.
 
I think libata is the IDE hard drive module and uhci_hcd is a USB module.
 
linux:~ # modprobe qozap
linux:~ # cat /proc/interrupts
           CPU0

 15:      25272          XT-PIC  ide1
NMI:          0
LOC:          0

Should I disable USB in the BIOS?  Should that remove uhci_hcd loading?  Is there a way to re-allocate the interrupt used for libata?
