I have a Zenith-Zstation GT with three pci cards, 
an adaptec 2940u, DEC fddi, and SMC ethernet.  BSD 2.1 will not see the
DEC FDDI card unless I remove the other two cards.  BSD tech support
said the problem is all three cards are using the same interrupt(9) and 
that I should use different interrupts for each card. Does this make any 
sense?  The zenith setup program will not allow me to change pci 
interrupts anyway, so now what?
