PCI slots are counted in a manner which should be discribed in
your mobo's manual.  The driver should find (and number) these
cards in the very same order.  "cat /proc/pci" ls "lspci" should
show you io values according to the PCI slots, as well.

Simple approach:  Do the usual ifconfig(8) / route(8) / ping(8)
sequence and watch the lights on the cards' ends. :)
