:> It's a pre-PnP SB16 from 1994, as far as I can tell -- IRQ, I/O port and DMA
:> channels can be set only by setting jumpers. I suppose I could pull the card

:Because of detection limitations in legacy hardware, you may have to notify
:the Plug and Play Layer that your device is using irq 5. Booting with the
:parameter pnp_reserve_irq=5 will prevent resource conflicts with the legacy
:SB16 device.
Thanks, now the PnP layer does not attempt to allocate IRQ 5.
:> ttyS0 at I/O 0x3f8 (irq = 0) is a 16550A
:> ttyS1 at I/O 0x2f8 (irq = 3) is a 16550A
:> ttyS2 at I/O 0x3e8 (irq = 4) is a 16550A
:> parport0: irq 7 detected
:
:Hmm, it shouldn't be reporting irq 0. The probbing code may be confused.
:I would guess it is on irq 4.
Ah.
:> Additionally, pnpdump says the modem can only claim an IRQ line from among
:> 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12 or 15 in various configurations.
:
:It appears that you have an unresolvable resource conflict. I'm working on
:a more flexable resource manager for the 2.7 kernel.
Great, thanks. I look forward to it. :) Here's what I get when I try to
enable the modem:
pnp: Unable to assign resources to device 01:01.00.
:For now, I recommend that you disable one of your serial ports in your BIOS
:configuration interface and try booting with pnp_reserve_irq=5.
I guess I could do that, since I'm not using ttyS0 anyway. In any case,
forcing the modem to use IRQ 4 via isapnptools does allow the modem to
function.
:Alternatively you could try enabling PnPBIOS support. There's a slight chance
:that the pci code will reroute ide2 to 14 (assuming ide2 is pci), leaving room
:for your modem on 9. You'll still need to reserve irq 5 as stated above.
PnPBIOS support is already enabled:
Linux Plug and Play Support v0.97 (c) Adam Belay
PnPBIOS: Scanning system for PnP BIOS support...
PnPBIOS: Found PnP BIOS installation structure at 0xc00fbd20
PnPBIOS: PnP BIOS version 1.0, entry 0xf0000:0xbd48, dseg 0xf0000
pnp: 00:0a: ioport range 0x208-0x20f has been reserved
PnPBIOS: 15 nodes reported by PnP BIOS; 15 recorded by driver
ide2 is indeed PCI, a Silicon Image 680-based PCI ATA interface, but it's
using IRQ 9:
SiI680: IDE controller at PCI slot 0000:00:13.0
PCI: Found IRQ 9 for device 0000:00:13.0
SiI680: chipset revision 2
SiI680: BASE CLOCK == 133
SiI680: 100% native mode on irq 9
ide2: MMIO-DMA at 0xc8800000-0xc8800007, BIOS settings: hde:pio, hdf:pio
ide3: MMIO-DMA at 0xc8800008-0xc880000f, BIOS settings: hdg:pio, hdh:pio
hde: WDC AC34300L, ATA DISK drive
hdf: MAXTOR 6L080L4, ATA DISK drive
ide2 at 0xc8800080-0xc8800087,0xc880008a on irq 9
