+4) Multiple cards
+--------------------------
+
+If you happen to be running multiple cards, it would be advisable to load
+the bttv module with the card id. This would help to solve any module loading
+problems that you might face.
+
+For example, if you have a Twinhan and Clones card along with a FusionHDTV5 Lite
+
+ $ modprobe bttv card=0x71 card=0x87
+
+Here the order of the card id is important and should be the same as that of the
+physical order of the cards. Here card=0x71 represents the Twinhan and clones
+and card=0x87 represents Fusion HDTV5 Lite. These arguments can also be
+specified in decimal, rather than hex:
+
+ $ modprobe bttv card=113 card=135
+
+Some examples of card-id's
+
+Pinnacle Sat 0x5e (94)
+Nebula Digi TV 0x68 (104)
+PC HDTV 0x70 (112)
+Twinhan 0x71 (113)
+FusionHDTV DVB-T Lite 0x80 (128)
+FusionHDTV5 Lite 0x87 (135)
