If  it was just with each other I would not be asking for help, as there
would not be problems cropping up.
They swap places with the dvb s cards as well. A dvb s card needs an lnb.
Plus its difficult to create a udev rule or link to both receivers in the
card as they don't have any differentiating attributes.


Has anybody got the dual nova t with satellite cards in the same box?
