These should be supported by the ix or iy driver, depending on whether
they're EE/16 or EE Pro 10 ISA. They suffer from the usual problem of
ISA cards that if they're not at the I/O address the kernel knows
about, they'll never be found. The GENERIC i386 kernel looks for ix at
port 300 and iy at port 360. Check under Windows and see where the
cards are. 

Also, the iy needs to not be in ISA Plug-n-Play mode; we don't have an
isapnp driver for it.
