Reading through the 3c59x source, I noticied that it has some support
for shared interrupts.  (notably including <linux/shared_irq.h>).
What's the status of shared interrupts in the kernel?  It would be
very useful for those not very configurable (but completely auto-
configurable) PCI systems that assign shared interrupts.
  In my case, the PCI bios assigns INT10 to both the 3c590 and an
Adaptec 2940 SCSI controller, and since both cards are only auto-
configurable by the PCI bus, I'm stuck.

Any suggestions/hacks would be apppreciated.

thanks,
