No, it doesn't.  The working kernel uses IRQ 9; the new kernel uses IRQ 5,
which is actually in use by a PCI card (ntwo) for which I'd commented out
the driver because I'm working on it and it doesn't currently compile.

So I'm trying to smash the ntwo driver so it'll compile again and I expect
that will fix things.

I'm pretty surprised that can happen, still.  I've never seen it happen
with any other PCI card we didn't have a driver for -- any idea how this
is happening?
