Is this correct:

1. Comment out the start of dvb driver in runvdr:

# Load driver if it hasn't been loaded already:
#if [ $LSMOD -eq 0 ] ; then
#   (cd $DVBDIR; make insmod)
#   fi

2. Create new dvb-start.sh script (is the & at the right place ?):
# Load driver if it hasn't been loaded already:
if [ $LSMOD -eq 0 ] ; then
    (cd $DVBDIR; &make insmod)
    fi

Question: If the dvb-driver hangs, will the restart be unaffected from  
this change ?
(I think so, but i'll ask to be sure ;-)

Christoph
