Alternatively, are you loading the module from /etc/modules?
If you have 2 NICs with the same driver, don't load it from
/etc/modules and instead use lines like these :
alias eth0 tulip
options eth0 io=0xdc00 irq=11
alias eth1 tulip
options eth1 io=0xde00 irq=10
The io= option will differentiate between them. Just be sure and
update that if you ever move stuff around on the bus :-). I specified
irq as well because they were sharing when I didn't, and I had a
spare, and it worked, so I thought "why not?".
