OK.... if the Bucs can win the SuperBowl then I can find out how to make
this work.....
In /usr/src/linux/pcmcia the file yenta.c I find.
* Only probe "regular" interrupts, don't
* touch dangerous spots like the mouse irq,
* because there are mice that apparently
* get really confused if they get fondled
* too intimately.
*
* Default to 11, 10, 9, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3.
*/
static u32 isa_interrupts = 0x0ef8;
static unsigned int yenta_probe_irq(pci_socket_t *socket, u32
isa_irq_mask)
{
int i;
unsigned long val;
u16 bridge_ctrl;
u32 mask;
This seems to be where it's talking about how it decides it's irq's
since exclude 11 doesn't work (in /etc/pcmcia/config.opts) it ignores it
and grabs the irq anyway. Does the above make sense to anyone? I'm
running into a spit pot full of walls here and frankly, my head hurts.
