HELP!!! how to set the IRQ in Linux?????


i have an old AST Acentia P series laptop (i know it's an antiq). under windows the pcmcia interface uses IRQ10, the same is used by the ireless adapter when conected.
i instaled Vector Linux 5.0.1. it works like a charm except the pcmcia and wireless card. dmesg says "unknown IRQ on pin A" for firs pcmcia slot ad wireless card an ..on pic B for the second pcmcia slot. it sugests using "pci=biosirq".
i tryd to load the yeta_socket module with "modprobe yenta_sochet pci=10" but it says unknon simbol in module and does not load it. same is tru for the rt2500 module (wireless card has a Ralink chipset)

I would appreciate any sugestions on how to set the IRQ in order to get the wireless card working.
Thank you for your time.
