I've tried to write a module to catch interrupts on DIO_11, my code  
is here:
http://cs.earlham.edu/~eeap/cvsweb/cvsweb.cgi/eeapnode/module/ 
eeapnode.c?rev=1.1

I have a switch to test the pulses, which goes 3.3V high when I flip  
it. It's connected to DIO_11. But I never recieve an interrupt, and / 
proc/stat doesn't show any occurring on IRQ 33.

:eeapnode# insmod -f eeapnode.o

dmesg:
...
eeapnode: /proc/eeapnode created
eeapnode: control pointer acquired (c604f000)
eeapnode: control = 0
eeapnode: setting external IRQ on DIO_11
eeapnode: control = 1

:eeapnode# cat /proc/interrupts
   4:      55191   timer
33:          0   eeapnode   <-----

56:          0   usb-ohci
Err:          0

* flipping switch back and forth a couple of times *

rmmod, dmesg:

eeapnode: unsetting external IRQ on DIO_11
eeapnode: control = 0
eeapnode: /proc/eeapnode removed

I have some user space code that polls DIO_11 using mmap, which shows  
the pin going high when I flip the switch. Not sure what I'm doing  
wrong. Any ideas?
