If you have PCI cards, IRQ sharing will work.
Otherwise, you may have to force the card not to be PNP and then tell it
what IRQ
since you don't have any ISA slots, you don't have an IRQ sharing
problem, and you can't steer your IRQ's using the BIOS.
Since Win98 works well, then it is a driver problem in Linux, or it is
an interfacing problem with the game software. You would need to locate a
linux gaming list

Thank you JMS for your very informative reply.

If you have PCI cards, IRQ sharing will work.
Otherwise, you may have to force the card not to be PNP and then tell it
what IRQ to be on. You usually have to run the DOS setup disk to get this
to happen.

The bios assigns the interrupt. Linux does not, so.., figure
how your bios
assigns the irq (one way is by slot). It is likely that you have not opted for
extended pci options in
your bios which include these assignments.
