salut,
j'ai une carte dvb-s pour laquelle je veux charger le firmaware au boot.
J'ai mis le firmware dans /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware et mis les modules dans /etc/modprobe.preload.
 
ça marche pas au boot :
 
saa7146: register extension 'dvb'.
saa7146: found saa7146 @ mem e18fdc00 (revision 1, irq 21) (0x13c2,0x0003).
dvb-ttpci: cannot request firmware!
 
par contre à la main ça marche impec !
ou est le pb    
merci
chris

Quelle distrib ?
surement un kernel2.6 recompilé ou non ?
 
tu a mis quoi exactement dans etc/modprobe.preload ?

désolé d'avoir oublié ces précisions:
mdk10oe, noyau 2.6.3-7mdk d'origine
[chris@tuxedo chris]$ cat /etc/modprobe.preload
# /etc/modprobe.preload: kernel modules to load at boot time.
#
# This file should contain the names of kernel modules that are
# to be loaded at boot time, one per line.  Comments begin with
# a `#', and everything on the line after them are ignored.
# this file is for module-init-tools (kernel 2.5 and above) ONLY
# for old kernel use /etc/modules

When everything is working you probably want to install the driver on your  
system by typing 'make install'. If you want to load the modules automatically
when an application tries to open the device you need to add lines like these  
to your modules.conf:
 
 probeall /dev/dvb dvb-ttpci
 alias /dev/dvb/* /dev/dvb
 below dvb-ttpci alps_bsrv2 alps_tdmb7 alps_tdlb7
 add below dvb-ttpci grundig_29504-401 grundig_29504-491
 add below dvb-ttpci stv0299 ves1820
 
Note: this example is for people with Technotrend-based PCI cards, they must  
load the dvb-ttpci driver and a matching frontend drivers that are potentially
used on these cards. In order to find out which ones are required for your
setup check the lsmod output after loading the driver like described above.
Those DVB modules that have a usecount greater zero are required in your  
setup - edit the modules.conf file appropriatly

remplace  dvb-ttpci  par stv0299 pour voir

toujours le même probleme !
au boot ça marche pas comme si hotplug prenait la main après l'execution de modprobe.preload...
