I'm trying to get two PCI 10BaseT nics to work in two of my machines, but
it only wants to use the first one.

I've got both 

	device de0
	device de1

in my config file, and this turns up in the log file.  Note that while
there are two lines for de0, which gets used, there is only one line for
de1, which doesn't show up on an ifconfig -a.

Feb  1 09:34:44 alexandria /kernel: de0 <Digital DC21041 Ethernet> rev 17
int a irq 9 on pci0:19
Feb  1 09:34:44 alexandria /kernel: de0: DC21041 [10Mb/s] pass 1.1
Ethernet address 00:20:18:50:53:a5
Feb  1 09:34:45 alexandria /kernel: de1 <Digital DC21041 Ethernet> rev 17
int a irq 9 on pci0:20
Feb  1 09:34:45 alexandria /kernel: Probing for devices on the ISA bus:

This is on 2.1.5-RELEASE.

I did check the mailing archives, and only found references to
multi-ethernet on a single card problems, at least once people got both de
lines in the config file.

Any suggestions?  Two of our machines are getting upgraded to PCI
ethernet, so we really want this to work so that we can move the SMC cards
elsewhere.
