Try this - change option to options, then run:
depmod -a
rmmod 3c509
modprobe 3c509

Running "depmod -a" tells the system about the changes in
modprobe.conf. You then have to remove the module, and
reload it to get it loaded with the new options.

You will not see IRQ 11 used in /proc/irq until there is a driver
loaded that is using it. It is not a list of IRQs used by hardware.
It is a list of IRQs that have drivers tied to them.
