Hello,

i have a Compaq Presario 17XL470. The tulip driver does not work.=20

ifconfig eth0 output:
...
TX packets:0 errors:14 ...
...
Interrupt:9 Base address: 0x1400

output of /proc/interrupts

...
9:        2        XT-PIC    i82365, eth0
...
Interrupt 7 is unused

System console:
Jul   5 22:59:42 pcwsr7 kernel: spurious 8259A interrupt: IRQ7.
...

Is the NIC hard wired on IRQ7?

I tried "options tulip irq=3D7" in /etc/modules.conf, but this option =
does not work.
How can i change the interrupt for the tulip driver?

Best regards
Wolfgang Stuehlmeyer
