On my combined FE/BE, cx-88 and emu10k1x are not on the same IRQ, but some
USB's and eth0 and emu10k1x are.  I'll play with it sometime next week. 'coz
I'll be away over the weekend.

Still not sure if my BIOS will allow me to diable the parallel port.  And I
don't where to tell the kernel not to load parport module.
