You can't force i/o or irq with PCI cards that I know of. The pci cards are generally loaded in the order that the modules are loaded in and/or order of the PCI-slots on the motherboard. Either switching the order that the modules are listed in /etc/modules or switching slots on the PCI-bus should correct the order for you. -- ~Lynn Avants Linux Embedded Appliance Firewall Developer http://leaf.sourceforge.net http://guitarlynn.homelinux.org:81 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: ValueWeb: Dedicated Hosting for just $79/mo with 500 GB of bandwidth!
