 2) Loading Modules
 ==================
 
 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.
-The frontends for Nebula (nxt6000), Pinnacle PCTV (cx24110) and

+i2c communication for us. Next you need the common dvb-bt8xx device driver
+and one frontend driver.
+
+The bttv driver will HANG YOUR SYSTEM IF YOU DO NOT SPECIFY THE CORRECT 
+CARD ID!
+
+(If you don't get your card running and you suspect that the card id you're
+using is wrong, have a look at "bttv-cards.c" for a list of possible card
+ids.)
+
+Pay attention to failures when you load the frontend drivers
+(e.g. dmesg, /var/log/messages).
 
 3a) Nebula / Pinnacle PCTV
 --------------------------
 
-   $ modprobe bttv (normally bttv is being loaded automatically by kmod)
-   $ modprobe dvb-bt8xx (or just place dvb-bt8xx in /etc/modules for automatic loading)
+   $ modprobe bttv i2c_hw=1 card=0x68
+   $ modprobe dvb-bt8xx
+
+For Nebula cards use the "nxt6000" frontend driver:

+The DST module takes a couple of useful parameters, in case the
+dst drivers fails to detect your type of card correctly.
 
-verbose takes values 0 to 5. These values control the verbosity level.
+dst_type takes values 0 (satellite), 1 (terrestial TV), 2 (cable).
 
-debug takes values 0 and 1. You can either disable or enable debugging.
+dst_type_flags takes bit combined values:
+1 = new tuner type packets. You can use this if your card is detected
+    and you have debug and you continually see the tuner packets not
+    working (make sure not a basic problem like dish alignment etc.)
 
-dst_addons takes values 0 and 0x20. A value of 0 means it is a FTA card.
-0x20 means it has a Conditional Access slot.
+2 = TS 204. If your card tunes OK, but the picture is terrible, seemingly
+    breaking up in one half continually, and crc fails a lot, then
+    this is worth a try (or trying to turn off)
