I have no idea how to figure out which > address range could be free. The 2.6 kernels have PCI quirks related to the M7101, which might explain why you didn't have to care about the address there. This might mean we could even get rid of the force_addr parameter in 2.6. Why don't you pick the exact same address in 2.4 that was automatically detected in 2.6? I'd assume this would be the safest choice. Or, like Mark said, just any free address (i.e. from a range not listed as used in /proc/ioport) should do. Thanks, -- Jean Delvare
