Acpi reassigns non conflicting low IRQ's - disable this behaviour?

[Chuck McKinnis]

I need ACPI to leave my network card alone. With 2.22 it comes up in low IRQs so I can use the netflx3 driver and all is good. with 3.08 it reassigns them to high IRQs and the driver loads but says the irq's are invalid and fails. I mapped the irq's to low IRQ's in the ACIPD.cfg, the driver loads but won't function. Can someone point me the right direction to keep ACPI from changing the IRQ's for the network card - or write/patch a netflx3 driver ( tlan ) - that will accept the high IRQ's :) thanks.

Try add /!NOD

with /!nod I get a lot of IRQ conflicts - then the system hangs on system sounds. I just need the network card to be assigned low IRQ's to satisfy the driver.

For next step I need in:

1. copy acpica$ acpi.log

2. pci.exe >pci.out

Attach pls thgis file

acpi log with !nod

acpi log /apic without !nod

pci log /apic

pci log /!nod

You can't use this remap now. try use:

Remap IRQ17 to 13

Remap IRQ18 to 15

if you hav't floppy, better change:

Remap IRQ18 to 6

I mean, you can use for remap 3(if com2 is absent and disabled in BIOS), 4 (if com1 is absent), 6 (if floppy is absent), 12 (if mouse is't PS/2), 13, 14/15 (if PATA is absent and disabled in BIOS),

5,7,9,10,11 can't using for REMAP

Replying to pasha:

5,7,9,10,11 can't using for REMAP

I use 5 as a remap target -- I just have to set it 'reserved' in the BIOS. Presumably 7 would work that way too.

I agree 9,10,11 won't work, though.

Hello Mike,

I can't understand, all is working fine if you map IRQ to 5? Can I close the ticket?

No feedback for too long.
