G'day all,

I have been adding/moving cards around in my fe/mbe machine.

I have added a AGP fx5200 and a PCI technisat DVB-S card
I have removed a PCI VGA card and now have a spare PCI slot.

Long term I want to add another 2 DVB-S cards and remove the PVR-150 I have.

The problem (?) I have at the moment is that the AGP card and the PVR-350 I have are sharing an IRQ as listed by lspci.

I am not using the FX5200 yet, I am still using the PVR-350 for video output.

If I start to use the AGP FX5200 am I going to run into issues because of the IRQ sharing, is it a suck it and see situation?
I can move the cards around at the moment but I think I am going to end up with a problem eventually whatever I do since all the PCI slots will be full.
I have done some googling on the mother board but not found much that is helpfull yet.

I'm no expert, but I was able to free up some IRQ spots by disabling ports I didn't use in the BIOS settings. Seemed to resolve some stability issues I had.

YMMV
