I'm using a pair of es1371 based SB128's in my DJ box.. Just modprobe 
the es1371 driver and it picks up both of them and they work perfectly.
In fact, one of them fel out of it's pci slot during a gig, but the 
second one kept on running without a hitch. The first card's associated 
player software crapped out, but I fired up my laptop, shared the music 
over nfs and continued without interruption.

Try doing that with windows!


I used to use dual ISA cards also, but I forget the modprobe entries I 
had to use to get the sb.o module to pick up both cards. You can do it 
though and it's all in the docs or source somewhere.
