Hi...
 
I've got a problem.
I have a NCR810 scsi card and a compex PCI ethernet , both on IRQ 11.
I can't change the IRQ in my bios of the devices and besides, if I could it would be of nu use, since I have no other free IRQ's.
Linux should be able to handle thsi from what I've heard (and besides windows '95 can, so linux should be able to do it as well). I was told that the problem is that my scsi driver uses fast IRQ's (SA_INTERRUPT) and my ethernet card uses slow IRQ's. The best workaround was to change the NCR53cxx scsi driver so that it uses slow irq's, that could be done by deleting the SA_INTERRUPT (http://cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov/linux/misc/irq-conflict.html). I tried that, but when I recompiled that file I got an error telling me that there was something wrong with the arguments in that .c file
 
Is there anyone who can help me solve this problem?
 
Vincent
