[mythtv-users] Finishing my Myth Configuration

[A JM]

Tim,

Out of curiosity on my behalf with item #3 what happens when you run
Myth without reloading the tuner?

"3. Whenever I reboot, I loose /dev/video0 and am forced to run "modprobe
ivtv" to reload my tuner device.  Is this the correct behaviour? Where
do I set this to run automatically?"

AJM,
