Allan, I recommend to use the 'adapter_nr' module option. You can specify this option in modprobe.conf -- the name of this file is distro-specific. For instance, to make the dual card appear before the lite card: options cx23885 adapter_nr=0,1 options dvb-bt8xx adapter_nr=2 to make the lite card appear before the dual card: options cx23885 adapter_nr=0 options dvb-bt8xx adapter_nr=1,2 I hope you find this helpful.
