Not always. On my motherboard, due to a lack IRQ's, my PCI
devices end up like this.
irq 11 - USB
irq 10 - Video card (Riva128)
irq 9 - ne2k-pci and tulip
And thats the best I can do. Beleive me, I've tried!
(I WISH it would use irq 12, or disable the USB (which
I don't use) but thats not possible)
The network card seems cool about it though.
For a while a had a little program that remapped the
PCI interrupts after the machine had booted, but after
I realized that it made no difference to the throughput
of the cards, I stopped that.
