How to change a conflict hardware interrupt?
« on: July 28, 2008, 03:08:34 PM »
I have one server running SME 7.3 and it is a 945 Intel board with only two PCI slots.
I tried to add aditional BBTV card (without jumpers or settings) in the server, and give me the error SIOCSIFFLAGS because hardware conflict. The integrated LAN card has the interrupt 217, but when I added the BBTV card, this card has the same interrupt and "hide" or overwrite LAN card interrupt because conflict.
Is there a way to resolve this issue?

I has running kudzu but nothing happens

Thanks

You can try to reset IRQ assignments on BIOS. There are an option to do that, on advanced setting or something like that.
And verify your BIOS configurated to understand your OS is PNP!
This way MAYBE your system reconfigure himself and fix this bug.

Good luck.

Yes Jader, I tried, but I will try again, because the BIOS menu not give me this option or at least I can't see it. I will return with more details.

Thank you
