Bug description:
In Lucid there isn't a dependency for myth-backend on kernel modules being 
loaded.  The result is that it can run before the kernel module for the 
hardware is finished loading.  The error looks like this in 
/var/log/myth/mythbackend.log

                        Perhaps you should re-read the installation 
instructions?

the setup program.

My current hack, which fixes the problem but is totally the wrong thing to do, 
is to add the following line to /etc/init/mythtv-backend.conf

/bin/sleep 60

Instead a proper dependency needs to be added in there, I just don't know 
enough about upstart to know how to do it.
