Is it possible they put a chip on to generate a PCI interrupt on perhaps
PCIB on the slot from the serial chips directly, so that they didn't
have to turn interrupts from the serial chips into a signal that forces
the parallel port to generate an interrupt? After all that would reduce
latency, and if you use PCIA for the parallel port, PCIB for the first
serial chip and PCIC for the second, you might get a much more efficient
design, although the driver would have to register all those IRQs.
What IRQ is each PCI device in that system using right now? perhaps we
could figure out what irq 17 would be on that PCI slot.
