Have you actually tried passing those details to PCI devices? I've always thought it only for ISA devices, for use when you can't probe them. I've looked at the ne code, and that detects the IRQ by sending some command (reset?) to the device and expecting the next interrupt is from that device. A cute idea, I thought! I think the ordering is significant, but you can't reorder the on-board devices, unless there's a BIOS setting for it. -- Please, reply only to the list. _______________________________________________ Redhat-devel-list mailing list Redhat-devel-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-devel-list
