  17. OS/2 doesn't use the IRQs and DMA channels per se.  The hardware is
  18. designed that way, and most operating systems/software use those
  19. system resources.  I would suggest consulting the people in
  20. comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware, since they have extensive lists.  Check
  21. their FAQ List first, obviously.
