[mythtv-users] Analog input from HDTV Wonder under Fedora 11

I just upgraded from F10 to F11.  Aside from the problems with LIRC (as 
mentioned on this list and which I resolved by compiling an LIRC CVS 
snapshot), I have one other nagging problem.

My HDTV Wonder supports both digital and analog inputs.  I have an analog 
input defined so I can get channels my cable company scrambles in digital but 
broadcasts in the clear in analog.  For the analog input only audio devices of 
the form /dev/dspX seem to be supported, but F11 doesn't create this device 
when I use my prior modprobe.conf (F10 did).

If I load snd-pcm-oss.ko manually these devices get created (one for my sound 
card, one for cx88_alsa for the HDTV Wonder).  Does anyone have a suggestion 
how this should be done in the "right way"?  It would be nice if there were 
either a way to specify the ALSA device for the capture card in mythtvsetup.  
Alternatively, I would like to do this in a way other than loading the module 
in /etc/sysconfig/modules.

TIA!
