2) Loading Modules
==================

In general you need to load the bttv driver, which will handle the gpio and
-i2c communication for us. Next you need the common dvb-bt8xx device driver
-and one frontend driver.
-
-The bttv driver will HANG YOUR SYSTEM IF YOU DO NOT SPECIFY THE CORRECT
-CARD ID!
-
-(If you don't get your card running and you suspect that the card id you're
-using is wrong, have a look at "bttv-cards.c" for a list of possible card
-ids.)
-
-Pay attention to failures when you load the frontend drivers
-(e.g. dmesg, /var/log/messages).
+i2c communication for us, plus the common dvb-bt8xx device driver.
+The frontends for Nebula (nxt6000), Pinnacle PCTV (cx24110) and
+TwinHan (dst) are loaded automatically by the dvb-bt8xx device driver.

3a) Nebula / Pinnacle PCTV
--------------------------

- $ modprobe bttv i2c_hw=1 card=0x68
- $ modprobe dvb-bt8xx
-
-For Nebula cards use the "nxt6000" frontend driver:
- $ modprobe nxt6000
-
-For Pinnacle PCTV cards use the "cx24110" frontend driver:
- $ modprobe cx24110
+ $ modprobe bttv (normally bttv is being loaded automatically by kmod)
+ $ modprobe dvb-bt8xx (or just place dvb-bt8xx in /etc/modules for automatic loading)

3b) TwinHan
