Hey there folks,
My BIOS gives Channel B of my SCSI host adapter (on-board) IRQ 11. It also
gives my STB Velocity 128 AGP Video Card IRQ 11. I've been told that they
can share, but so far Linux will only recognize the SCSI. I cannot use
X-Windows. Any advice would be appreciated.
Also, please don't reply saying to move the cards around, make BIOS changes
and whatnot to make them use different IRQs because I have already exhausted
that possibility and it cannot be done on my system...neither the SCSI nor
the video card can be moved to different PCI slots. (only one AGP slot and
SCSI is on-board) I even tried flashing my BIOS to see if it gave me better
options...it didn't. I am now at the point where my goal is to get them to
share an IRQ like good little I/O cards.
Thanx,
Hexadecimal <hex16@usa.net>
