[wellylug] Werid Network Problems + IRQ Conflict

I just installed Red Hat 9 on my HP Pavilion 4422.

When it boots using the ps2 mouse, it keeps saying that the mouse is
busy. It then tries to start the x server, but it doesn't work.
If I use a serial mouse, it all works okay...

I also tried to get my isa network card going. The card wasn't detected
at installation, but was detected at first boot. I installed it, but I
can only ping the pc's ip.

I think this is a IRQ conflict between the mouse + network card. The
network card is IRQ 12, & I read online somewhere that the mouse
sometimes uses it.

How can I change the IRQ of the network card or mouse?

Thanks.
