Hmmm, yes they are both PCI - swapping the card order made no difference -
the same card gets recognised first, and the second one ignored.
Does this indicate a hardware problem?

Yes, I now think (from the manufacturer's website) that they can both
use the tulip driver, but it seems to just ignore the second one
(presumably because they share I/O address). Using the other Dec
driver, with which it seems compatible too, was what actually threw up
an error message, making me think that was the true driver.
