Two ethernet cards



I have 2 PCI Planex ethernet cards in my machine, the first uses
"tulip.c" as its driver, and the second uses "de4x5.c".

When I inserted the second card today and rebuilt my kernel (no
modules), during boot-time initialization the tulip driver initializes
successfully as eth0, but the second driver fails with:-

eth1: region already allocated at 0xe400

because that I/O port was grabbed by the tulip driver.

Is there a way around this, or can I not use these two cards in
the same machine?  I can't see any jumpers or switches that might
change either I/O port on the cards.

Cheers,

Neil.
