Can I renumber the devices using module parameters? My scripts assume the mpg and vbi devices have the same number.
For saa7134 I use /etc/modprobe.d/saa7134: options saa7134 card=95,95,95,95,95 tuner=39,39,39,39,39 video_nr=1,2,3,4,5 vbi_nr=1,2,3,4,5 radio_nr=1,2,3,4,5 disable_ir=1,1,1,1,1 # Work around udev install saa7134 /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install saa7134; /sbin/modprobe saa7134-alsa # Alsa options saa7134-alsa index=1,2,3,4,5 Can I still pass device option numbers to the ivtv devices? An alternative simple fix would be to add a zero to the other devices, since udev now generates nodes on the fly anyway, but I guess demand is modest. If you can point me to the code I may give it a try. Dave _______________________________________________ ivtv-devel mailing list [email protected] http://ivtvdriver.org/mailman/listinfo/ivtv-devel
