Perhaps this change should be propagated to other card drivers? This is already the case. bttv is the analog driver, dvb-bt8xx is the DVB driver, and it automatically loads (bt878 and) all supported frontends EXCEPT dst. > > If all else fails, just add the modprobe commands to the /etc/rc.local > file.
