Re: usb/modem irq conflict
is your modem isa or pci?if its pci then you should be ok. your bios should not idenitfy pci devices in the same irq. if its isa, then try changing the modem's irq, either by isapnp , if supported, or by its DOS configuring disk. Also, you can try using the bios setup to make it assign a diferent interrupt to the usb controler. On Sat, 19 Jan 2002, Thomas H.

usb/modem irq conflict
When I built a kernel with usb support the usb controller took over irq 3 which was being used by my modem. I had to recompile without usb support to get back online. At present my best guess is to disassemble the computer and move the modem card to a different pci slot. Are there any progammable solutions to this problem?
