What other IRQ's are in use ??
B
I have read a little about setserial but I don't fully understand if this
will work. What I really want is to
set the IRQ of eth0 to something different. When I guess at a different
IRQ (8 - 12) the system does not
recognize it. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

My first suggestion is to change the Zoom modem to COM1:. Since you say that
it is using IRQ 3 at present, I think you must have it jumpered to COM2:
At least COM1: (ttyS0) is usually on IRQ 4, I/O address 0x03f8
and COM2: (ttyS1) is usually on IRQ 3, I/O address 0x2f8.
Once you've changed the modem to be COM1:, then do the following as root:
cd /dev
rm modem
ln -s ttyS1 modem
A lot of programs expect to have the default modem on /dev/modem. The
above sets /dev/modem to /dev/ttyS1 (COM2:).
I hope this helps,
John
Maybe possibly usually for DOS!

If it's ISA, I can't help you. If it's PCI, don't worry about it.
