Could you test with 2.4.3-22mdk kernel that I have just uploaded to
cooker. It has the 6.1.11 aic7xxx driver.

dmesg command after boot should show they just fine.
Notice that having several devices in the same IRQ is fine,
i.e. should be no problem at all.

You can see that I have usb & eth0 in irq 5
and ide2, ide3 & my sound card in irq 10.
Later, Juan.
