and one frontend driver. The frontends for Nebula (nxt6000), Pinnacle PCTV (cx24110) and
TwinHan (dst) are loaded automatically by the dvb-bt8xx device driver.
The bttv driver will HANG YOUR SYSTEM IF YOU DO NOT SPECIFY THE CORRECT

(If you don't get your card running and you suspect that the card id you're

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