The video card does not use 2 IRQs. Here's the /proc/pci output for the
V770 card (warning, it's gonna wrap!):
Bus 1, device 0, function 0:
VGA compatible controller: NVidia Unknown device (rev 21).
Vendor id=10de. Device id=28.
Medium devsel. Fast back-to-back capable. IRQ 9. Master
Capable. Latency=32. Min Gnt=5.Max Lat=1.
Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xe4000000 [0xe4000000].
Prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xe6000000
[0xe6000008].
