Check /etc/conf.modules and see what linuxconf wrote to it for the aliases.
There should be two using the same module in thcase but with different
interrupts. At least that is how is it done on my firlwall box, but it has isa
cards.
dmesg might also give you a clue as to what linux recognized and assigned at
startup. There is also a possible issue with the bios plug and play settings.
A search at www.moongroup.com/old/redhat.php migh yeild some interesting results
if you don't get a specific enough answer soon.
