I would start with one of the isa cards, not both at the same time. Try
getting one working and then move on. I've never used Linksys cards so
don't know if the isa cards are supported or which module they would need.
The first step is seeing if the kernel detects the cards at all. What
does "dmesg" say about the cards? Post that and we can go from there.
