well you can take a look at /var/log/syslog if there are any conflicts or shares. /etc/pcmcia/config.opts tells you which irq's are reserved for pcmcia -probably 3, the file is fairly self explanatory. Then check whether for instance the Infra Red port is sharing the same irq for instance (there could be more devices). I don't what you've got (I dropped in fairly late here) but if you can change settings through the BIOS, then that's easy enough. In my case I had a Thinkpad with a moronic windoze like BIOSinterface that doesn't give any real options- one needs a special configuration program that runs under DOS to change irq settings. -- Good Luck, Harm Bathoorn.
