How to change IRQ


Hello.

After much frustration, it has become clear that the problem with my Audigy 2 ZS sound card is that it's sharing IRQ 5 with my motherboard. Can anybody tell me how to override whatever the BIOS is doing and assign the card to a different IRQ?

Thanks in advance.

You can supply an "irq=" option to many kernel modules, but I believe you'll also need to set that value in the BIOS itself.
