Ok, ive got a mean IRQ conflict on my flatmates machine. We had the same
problem under winblows that meant he could no longer use the scsi card for
his zip-drive. Anyway, the network card loads fine, HW address and
everything, we just cant ping any other local machine. Also we are trying to
get his geforce 2 card to work with nvidias drivers, but x crashes completely
after about 10 seconds use. The geforce card we think is the culprit as the
network used to be on irq 12 (its a realtek 81930 or something). Here is the
important otput from /proc/pci :
//first bit removed
Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB Live! EMU10000 (rev 4).
IRQ 7.
Master Capable. Latency=32. Min Gnt=2.Max Lat=20.
I/O at 0xdc00 [0xdc1f].
Bus 0, device 9, function 1:
Input device controller: Creative Labs SB Live! (rev 1).
Master Capable. Latency=32.
I/O at 0xe000 [0xe007].
Bus 0, device 10, function 0:
SCSI storage controller: Advanced System Products, Inc ABP940-UW (rev 0).
IRQ 11.
Master Capable. Latency=32. Min Gnt=6.Max Lat=13.
I/O at 0xe400 [0xe43f].
Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xdb000000 [0xdb0000ff].
Bus 0, device 11, function 0:
Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139 (rev 16).
IRQ 10.
Master Capable. Latency=32. Min Gnt=32.Max Lat=64.
I/O at 0xe800 [0xe8ff].
Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xdb001000 [0xdb0010ff].
Bus 1, device 0, function 0:
VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV15 (Geforce2 GTS) (rev
163).
IRQ 12.
Master Capable. Latency=32. Min Gnt=5.Max Lat=1.
Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xd8000000 [0xd8ffffff].
Prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xd0000000 [0xd7ffffff].
This is without USB interface loaded which uses irq 10 also. How can i
delibrately change the IRQs that the cards use? Or fix this.
Thanks Guys, sorry for length but im completely stumped
