 ==================
-In general you need to load the bttv driver, which will handle the gpio and

-i2c communication for us, plus the common dvb-bt8xx device driver.
+To load the backend either place dvb-bt8xx in etc/modules, or apply manually:

-FusionHDTV DVB-T Lite (mt352) and FusionHDTV5 Lite (lgdt330x) are loaded
-automatically by the dvb-bt8xx device driver.
-3a) Nebula / Pinnacle PCTV / FusionHDTV Lite
---------------------------------------------
-   $ 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 and Clones
--------------------------
-   $ modprobe bttv card=0x71
+        $ modprobe dvb-bt8xx
-   $ modprobe dvb-bt8xx
-   $ modprobe dst
-The value 0x71 will override the PCI type detection for dvb-bt8xx,
+All frontends will be loaded automatically.
-which  is necessary for TwinHan cards. Omission of this parameter might result
+People running udev please see Documentation/dvb/udev.txt.
-in a system lockup.
-If you're having an older card (blue color PCB) and card=0x71 locks up
+In the following cases overriding the PCI type detection for dvb-bt8xx might be necessary:
-your machine, try using 0x68, too. If that does not work, ask on the
-mailing list.
-The DST module takes a couple of useful parameters.
+2a) Running TwinHan and Clones
+------------------------------
-verbose takes values 0 to 4. These values control the verbosity level,
+        $ modprobe bttv card=113
-and can be used to debug also.
+        $ modprobe dvb-bt8xx
+        $ modprobe dst
-verbose=0 means complete disabling of messages
+Useful parameters for verbosity level and debugging the dst module:
-        1 only error messages are displayed
-        2 notifications are also displayed
-        3 informational messages are also displayed
-        4 debug setting
-dst_addons takes values 0 and 0x20. A value of 0 means it is a FTA card.
+verbose=0:              messages are disabled
-0x20 means it has a Conditional Access slot.
+        1:              only error messages are displayed
+        2:              notifications are displayed
+        3:              other useful messages are displayed
+        4:              debug setting
+dst_addons=0:           card is a free to air (FTA) card only
+           0x20:        card has a conditional access slot for scrambled channels
-The autodetected values are determined by the cards 'response string'
+The autodetected values are determined by the cards' "response string".
-which you can see in your logs e.g.
+In your logs see f. ex.: dst_get_device_id: Recognize [DSTMCI].
+For bug reports please send in a complete log with verbose=4 activated.
+Please also see Documentation/dvb/ci.txt.
-dst_get_device_id: Recognise [DSTMCI]
+2b) Running multiple cards
-If you need to sent in bug reports on the dst, please do send in a complete
-log with the verbose=4 module parameter. For general usage, the default setting
-of verbose=1 is ideal.
-4) Multiple cards
 --------------------------
-If you happen to be running multiple cards, it would be advisable to load
+Examples of card ID's:
-the bttv module with the card id. This would help to solve any module loading
-problems that you might face.
-For example, if you have a Twinhan and Clones card along with a FusionHDTV5 Lite
-        $ modprobe bttv card=0x71 card=0x87
+Pinnacle PCTV Sat:               94
+Nebula Electronics Digi TV:     104
-Here the order of the card id is important and should be the same as that of the
+pcHDTV HD-2000 TV:              112
-physical order of the cards. Here card=0x71 represents the Twinhan and clones
+Twinhan DST and clones:         113
-and card=0x87 represents Fusion HDTV5 Lite. These arguments can also be
+Avermedia AverTV DVB-T 771:     123
-specified in decimal, rather than hex:
+Avermedia AverTV DVB-T 761:     124
+DViCO FusionHDTV DVB-T Lite:    128
+DViCO FusionHDTV 5 Lite:        135
+Notice: The order of the card ID should be uprising:
+Example:
        $ modprobe bttv card=113 card=135
+        $ modprobe dvb-bt8xx
-Some examples of card-id's
