I'm using FC3 (followed Jarod's guide) and had this
problem. I just created a startup script in
/etc/rc3.d/S85tuners which gets run before
/etc/rc3.d/S86mythbackend. Here it is
#!/bin/bash
#
# description: Loading the tuners for mythbackend so
it doesn't get \
# confused.
# Source function library.
. /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions
start() {
#/usr/local/bin/MAKEDEV-DVB.sh
/sbin/modprobe cx88-dvb
/sbin/modprobe ivtv
/usr/bin/ivtvctl -d /dev/video3 -p 6
}
stop() {
/sbin/modprobe -r cx88-dvb
/sbin/modprobe -r ivtv
}
# See how we were called.
case "$1" in
start)
start
;;
stop)
stop
;;
*)
echo $"Usage: $prog {start|stop}"
exit 1
esac
exit $RETVAL
Cut and paste and chmod 755
