[mythtv-users] Myth not tuning correctly at first boot

Can anyone help me with the required commands to manually load the bttv
stuff at boot ?
I have found that I need tuner type=18 & card type=10, but I don't know how
to set it up properly.
I tried adding these to modules.conf but it didn't help.
Thanks,
Pete
