Maybe...

The first time you load the module it detects both cards and configures
them then. However since the second card can't be configured with the
same parameters, it should fail. 

The second renamed module should be able to get the second card only
right? Or will it try to set up both cards? Another issue is the
possible conflict between the two modules identical in every way except
name. Is the module name embedded in the module itself or does it merely
come from the filename?

It's a nice idea and although it might break I will definitely try it.
"Now why didn't I think of that?" he says to himself.

Thanks for the suggestion
