I will try this, but my card has (and does) worked with irq sharing for a long time. Its entry in /proc/interrupts: 9: 164935 165896 IO-APIC-level acpi, bttv I find it strange that a driver that had worked with shared interrupts for a long time would suddenly cease to function with shared interrupts, and would consider this a bug. I will try changing the slot, but getting it to not share interrupts will be difficult considering the number of pci devices I have.
