Logical IRQ numbers are one side, but you first have to find out if the PCI components do not share the same *physical* line. Dependent on the system design, there should be some way to flip those line assignment, either by moving to another extension slot or even by playing with jumpers (PC/104plus boards may provide this e.g.).
