Sometimes this is a sign for two cards using the same io values or
interrupts.
Are you running the freshly compiled kernel (try uname -a)?
Is your card a plug and pray? Does /etc/isapnp.conf exist and does it
have the correct values then?
As Stuart pointes out below: Do you supply the correct io and
interrupt values, to the module?
