Still not clear... I was thinking about the "bttv" options... If one of the invocations of bttv requires: options bttv0 card=113 i2c_hw=1 but the other invocation of bttv requires: options bttv1 card=112 (with no "i2c_hw=1" parameter), how does one break those out? -Philip > >> >> FWIW, I removed all my modprobe lines for the frontends of my budget >> cards.
