Hi,
Just wanted to share some details from my setup. In my
/etc/modules.d/ivtv, I have:
alias char-major-81-0 ivtv
alias char-major-61 lirc_i2c
options ivtv ivtv_debug=1
options cx25840 no_black_magic=1 debug=0
add below ivtv wm8775 cx25840 tveeprom
add above ivtv lirc_i2c lirc_dev
Notice the lines "add below" and "add above". After a modules-update, the
generated modprobe.conf contains (apart from the module options of
course):
install ivtv { /sbin/modprobe wm8775; /sbin/modprobe cx25840;
/sbin/modprobe tveeprom; } ; /sbin/modprobe --first-time --ignore-install
ivtv && { /sbin/modprobe lirc_i2c; /sbin/modprobe lirc_dev; /bin/true; }
remove ivtv { /sbin/modprobe -r lirc_i2c; /sbin/modprobe -r lirc_dev; } ;
/sbin/modprobe -r --first-time --ignore-remove ivtv && { /sbin/modprobe -r
wm8775; /sbin/modprobe -r cx25840; /sbin/modprobe -r tveeprom; /bin/true;
}
Thus, when I modprobe ivtv, the modules specified as "add below" are
loaded first (receiving their options properly), then ivtv is loaded, and
finally the modules specified as "add above" are loaded. When I modprobe
-r ivtv, the unload sequence is the other way around.
I have a 2.6 kernel and use module-init-tools. I don't know if "add above"
and "add below" are supported by modutils.
