OK!

I have tried it before and i get a "-ENOSYS" returned.

My code was/is now:
--==>
request_irq(MPC52xx_IRQ2, intmod_isr, IRQF_DISABLED , "intmod",
            INTMOD_IRQ_BOARD);
<==--

I have looked up "kernel/irq/manage.c". "-ENOSYS" is returned on function
"setup_irq" because the used irq(MPC52xx_IRQ2) is the same as no_irq_chip.

THE MPC52xx_IRQ2 is a excerpt from "include/ppc/mpc52xx.h" (per copy
paste), but mpc52xx is (now) a powerpc-arch. What is the desired value for
IRQ-2 on a mpc5200b?

best regards,
