Hello,
   we are using the Linux 2.2.16 kernel (some of the code we purchased 
does not work with 2.4.x kernels and we would have to do a lot of 
regression testing to upgrade) on an IBM e-server. We wrote a module for 
a modulator card we are using. The code uses pci_find_device to find the 
modulator cards. The problem we are having is that it finds the cards in 
different orders. One time hss0 is the card in slot 4 and hss1 is the 
card in slot5. The next time we power up the computer, hss0 is the card 
in slot5 and hss1 is the card in slot 4.
   The IBM e-server has about 5 PCI bridges.
   Do you have any suggestion as to how I might be able to ensure the 
cards are always detected in the same order? Our system requires that 
they always be in the same order.
   I can email you the source code for our module, it is GPLed.
 
   Please CC comments to hamilton@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
TIA,
Kendrick Hamilton
