[linux-audio-user] Just bought a Delta 1010LT, now what..?

I also just set up my delta1010 and have been experiencing
similar problems.

My IRQ setup looks like this:

[root@Katanya jos]# cat /proc/interrupts
            CPU0
   0:  155588356          XT-PIC  timer
   1:      11683          XT-PIC  keyboard
   2:          0          XT-PIC  cascade
   5:      23383          XT-PIC  usb-uhci, usb-uhci, ICE1712
   8:          1          XT-PIC  rtc
   9:          6          XT-PIC  acpi, ohci1394, usb-uhci
  11:     385494          XT-PIC  ehci_hcd, eth0, Intel 82801DB-ICH4
  12:     908490          XT-PIC  PS/2 Mouse
  14:     511812          XT-PIC  ide0
  15:       2422          XT-PIC  ide1
NMI:          0
ERR:          0

 From previous info on this thread, it looks like my card is
in, like, the *worst* possible position.  And my little Ice Cube
P4 box only has one PCI slot, and the Delta1010 is in it.

Since moving my card is not an option, and I'd really like to
keep my USB functional, I'm wondering if anybody has any advice
on how to tweak my particular system?

Thanks for any help.
