It is supposed to be handled by the BIOS; the method the BIOS uses to
determine who gets which IRQ is another story.
PCI cards can safely share interrupts, provided the software supprots it.
What model graphics card do you have? I've heard that Riva based cards
may have this problem, but as it doesn't affect me I don't remember the
solution.
I think there is an X server patch, or seomthing ,that fixes this.
