is there anything else using irq 7? pciconf -lv or dmesg|grep irq will
show you what irq's are being used. the parallel port usually uses irq
7 so you might have to change it. i have three nics in my firewall and
they use irqs 10,11, and 14. might want to try using those(if
something else isn't already)
