	I know how much you guys love obscure problems so here come two of
them.

	First, how to disable a PCI device from being allocated an IRQ that
it is
	sharing with something else.  Windows can share IRQs but Linux can't
	apparently and I have video and ethernet on-board that are sharing
IRQ
	4.  I've been fiddling with setpci but it doesn't seem to work,
lspci -v
	still shows them with the video having IRQ 4 and the ethernet having
0
	(ie. error).

	Second question, I have a DVD RAM that I have written in NTFS
format, that
	my DVD ROM drive can't read  (I no longer have access to the DVD RAM
	drive that I used to write the damn thing).  Windows just shows it
as
	blank but in Linux I can cat the device and it shows me what is
there,
	however it can't mount it regardless of having the NTFS module
	loaded.  The DVD ROM drive can read DVD RAM disks but Windows only
	recognises them in UDF format.

	I know those are kind of obscure but any ideas would be appreciated.

	PS.  Andrew, to-do list.
