I've been trying to get a kernel built that will

the problem I keep running into, I compile the kernel with SMP processor support,
because my processor is a dual core (duh right?) but as some may know, this
automatically builds in APIC support. This then leads to unruly IRQ assignments,
in my case, a quick cat /proc/interrupts will almost allways show my soundcard
being shared with a usb port. of of course, to tease me even more, no assignment
on irq 5, i've tried the whole hop-scotch game with the pci slots, nothing
works.
IRQ assignment is usually hard wired - aka you can't change it.
Possibly booting with "noapic" could help.
