hi,
I'm facing similar crappy IRQ settings on my Thinkpad R61 here as
Svend-Erik described - my cardbus shares it's interrupt with the
graphicscard.
I spent 2 nights now to play around with the (only available)
settings in bios, which was to adjust pcibusses from preadjusted "11"
to anything else and finally "automatic" - without any success. I
tried to switch off APIC, ACPI, I tried pci=assign_busses - nothing
changed.
I wonder if it would make sense then to spend the money for a device
like E-MU 1616 or even RME Multiface...
Things seem to be a little better on firewire - the 1394 only shares
it's interrupt with a unused usbbus and the also unused onbordsound -
would it be probably the better way to go for a, lets say, Presonus
Firepod?
I'm sorry to further stress that exasperating hardware item but it's
really a pain to find a solution - there is a huge amount of info out
there in the web - but finding something which really leads one
further can be a punishment.
thanks a lot for any hints
Since you have a thinkpad, you should first check if it has a decent
built-in 1394 controller. Some thinkpads use a Ricoh controller that
is buggy and can't be used for audio.
"lspci | grep 1394" will give the information on that.
Greets,
