[PLUG] SB Live's Revenge

[Matthew Henkler]

If you have an ACPI compliant bios, and installed windows 2000 when ACPI
was enabled, every PCI device appears to have an IRQ of 9 (the IRQ of
the ACPI controller).  Though the device is not actually using this IRQ,
windows 2000 lists it as such.  I don't know much about the complete
details of the ACPI spec, but that is what my card does, and I don't
think the IRQ issue is as much of a problem as an actual IRQ conflict
would be.

I had to change the order of my cards around a couple of times until the
SB Live wasn't sharing IRQ's with something it didn't like (such as my
SCSI card or my video card).  Then I was able to get sound out of the
device.
