Mandrake 7.1 ... my scsi doesn't show up in the irq list
How can I set it up so it's detected automatically...?
Do I need to disable PNP and do it manually?
I've tried that before on my other box to no avail.
How does that work?

For PCI PNP cards, your bios should allow to set what IRQ each slot uses. On mine I can look at my motherboard and find out the slot number, then go into my bios and set the IP. To prevent IRQ conflicts you better look at what IRQ's are used and use one that is available. If all the IRQ's are used (I think it stops at 15 on normal boards) use one in the higher digits that isn't already shared.

What SCSI card? Is it on Mandrake's hardware list?
Mandrake should have found the SCSI card at install. Is that where you're having the problem?
