Date: 15 Aug 1995 17:23:59 GMT Organization: Symbios Logic Lines: 24 Message-ID: <40ql7g$1f7@jupiter.WichitaKS.NCR.COM> References: <40mpnb$h94_002@news.hooked.net> NNTP-Posting-Host: wingwalker.ncrmicro.ncr.com X-Newsreader: Tin 1.1 PL5 i have probably the same problem. under FreeBSD-2.0, my PAS soundcard and CD-ROM were both recognized automatically and worked great. Under 2.05, the auto-detect in the startup won't take both the CD ROM and the sound card at the same time. becasue they use the same IRQ, once my CD player gets probed, my audio device won't get found. i can turn off hte CD player nad the audio works fine. not for playing CDs tho :) there was a quiestion in the FAQ about multiserial devices using hte same IRQ, but i wanst able to get both devices up even with that info. sigh :( should i quote my config file here?

Any resemblance between the above and my own views is non-deterministic. The question of the existence of views in the absence of anyone to hold them is left as an exercise for the reader. The question of the existence of the reader is left as an exercise for the second god coefficient. (A discussion of non-orthogonal, non-integral polytheism is beyond the scope of this article.)
