It should be in /etc/modules.conf or /etc/modprobe.conf

code in modprobe.conf

alias eth0 via-rhine
alias scsi_hostadapter sata_via
alias snd-card-0 snd-via82xx
options snd-card-0 index=0
install snd-via82xx /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd-via82xx && /usr/sbin/alsactl restore >/dev/null 2>&1 || :
remove snd-via82xx { /usr/sbin/alsactl store >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; }; /sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd-via82xx
alias char-major-81 bttv
alias usb-controller ehci-hcd
alias usb-controller1 uhci-hcd

do i change the 81 to 77 in (alias char-major-81 bttv)

thanks again
this project is addictive

No, don't change the 81. That would be 'a very bad thing'

You will need to add another line after that one that says something like

Code: Select all

options bttv card=77

though ultimately you may need to add other options. This also assumes you have a singe chip card. For instance this is from my modules.conf

Code: Select all

options bttv card=42,42,42,42 pll=1 radio=0 tuner=4 sloppy=1 chroma_agc=1 mmap=1 vbibufs=4 v4l2=1 gbuffers=16

which i think is for a Spectra8.

Also, you will have to unload and reload the bttv driver for this to take effect. Ordinarily the easiest and safest way to do this is via a reboot so it can get a bit laborious if you have to do it a lot.
