But then its not limited to usb+graphics, firewire+graphics sharing the

the closed source driver...

USB very often is sharing IRQs. Hm? If USB
won't cause IRQ issues I
only need to find a flat, wired one.
Yes, most motherboards almost always put the USB controller on the same
IRQ as something else. Then again, I've never seen one that actually
caused problems from that. PCI IRQ sharing can work, you just can't
necessarily trust that XYZ card will do it right. I've never had an IRQ
sharing problem from on-board USB before though.
