$\nu$ Eridani is a well known multiperiodic $\beta$ Cephei pulsator which exhibits also the SPB (Slowly Pulsating B-type stars) type modes. Recent frequency analysis of the BRITE photometry of $\alpha$ Lupi showed that the star is also a hybrid $\beta$ Cep/SPB pulsator, in which both high and low frequencies were detected. We construct complex seismic models in order to account for the observed frequency range, the values of the frequencies themselves and the non-adiabatic parameter $f$ for the dominant mode. Our studies suggest, that significant modifications of the opacity profile at the temperature range $\log{T}\in (5.0-5.5)$ are necessary to fulfill all these requirements.
