Subject: [gentoo-user] Preventing a shared interrupt

1 Does anyone know how to prevent my "nouveau" video card and "ath" wifi
2 card from sharing interrupt 19? I can't move the video card slot and
3 I'd rather not move the wifi card slot if possible.
4
5 BTW, does anyone see any other opportunity for interrupt optimization
6 here? I'm trying to optimize for video and especially audio, and I'm
7 using a USB 1.0 sound card.
