Well for me, all I had to do was prevent the cx88_blackbird module loading, and then my system automatically loaded the cx88_dvb instead. I notice that you've also got the blackbird module in there so maybe that would work for you too. As you've found out loading the cx88_dvb on top doesn't seem to cause any problems so you can just force it to load. As for how to do either of the above, I'm afraid I'd have to look up the way I did it tonight and I suspect it's distribution dependent anyway. I'm running Fedora Core 3, so if you don't get any joy before I get home tonight I can let you know my solution. Post back with the flavour of linux that you are using, and I suspect someone else here will be able to help you. In the meantime you could look at using /etc/modprobe.conf or rc.local or rc.sysinit (as described in Jarod Wilson's guide to mythtv on Fedora) _______________________________________________ mythtv-users mailing list mythtv-users@mythtv.org http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users
