What is your OS? You don't actually say what the problem is here  
although I am getting an implication that the 8139 doesn't work? In  
any case IRQs are *meant* to be sharable and two cards (or 100) on  
the same IRQ is not a problem in and of itself. If you're having  
problems, it is most likely a poorly written driver.
