To continue this theme, I've noticed in my short time on this list that
many people have lines like

alias char-major-?? ivtv

specified in modprobe.conf. This, AIUI, is necessary only when not using
udev/devfs (and your system has a thousand speculative entries in /dev).

Similarly, I see a few mails (like the one which began this thread)
where people have hard-wired options to override autodetection. By the
look of things (on my own hardware at least) the latest autodetection is
working pretty well, so I'd propose the standard common should be just a
plain "modprobe ivtv". If/when that fails, bring the discussion here and
try to find the fault.

Just my 2c...


Cheers,
Phil
