<DIV><FONT size=2><FONT face=Arial>>The changes I have made to the system to
get the cards recognised are: <BR><BR>>/etc/rc.d/rc.local:
<BR><BR></FONT><FONT face=Arial><FONT color=#660066>># Remove modules
<BR></FONT>>/sbin/modprobe -r saa7134 <BR>>/sbin/modprobe -r saa7134-dvb
<BR><BR>>/sbin/modprobe saa7134-dvb <BR>>/sbin/modprobe saa7134-alsa
<BR><BR>>sleep 5 <BR>>chmod -R 777 /dev/dvb/adapter0 <BR>>chmod -R 777
/dev/dvb/adapter1 <BR><BR>>(ex-<B
style="COLOR: black; BACKGROUND-COLOR: rgb(255,255,128)">MythDora</B>) This is
done because leaving the saa7134 module to load on <BR>>it's own won't
initialise saa7134-dvb and therefore no dvb directory <BR>>under /dev.
<BR><BR>>/etc/modprobe.conf: <BR><BR></FONT><FONT face=Arial><FONT

<BR><BR>>I put these in because they are the only thing that would get both
DVB <BR>>cards going automagically.....but I am not a linux guru by any
means, I <BR>>just see things done and copy them. <BR><BR>>So, can anyone
suggest a better way or a way to get mythbackend to run <BR>>via an init
script AFTER my cards are recognised or a better way to get <BR>>2 DVB cards
recognised and installed without this trickery... <BR><BR>>Thanks in advance
<BR><BR>>Cheers <BR>>Bruce </FONT></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>You could just put in "/etc/init.d/mythbackend
start" at the end of rc.local.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>You could also elect to turn off mythbackend from
the init scripts </FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2>with</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>"/sbin/chkconfig mythbackend off" if it's failing
once you've done this. As</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>for your modprobe.conf hacks, I wouldn't think you
would need that. Once</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>the modules have been loaded and the adapters
created, then all should</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>be well.</FONT></DIV>
