    load a module on the startup (/etc/modules already modified)

    Hello everyone, this is my firts topic in here I'm not English so sorry for my expression.

    I've expend some days testing kubuntu 10.04 and i don't like the experience, en each update the nvidia drivers doesn't works and I have to reinstall its drivers every time...very uneatable...

    Well, the point is that I have installed a Wandtv DVB dongle usb, but the problem is that i can't make load on the startup of Linux, and I have to install it everytime...

    I tried modify the /etc/modules adding the modules
    dvb-core.ko
    dvb-usb.ko
    ec100.ko
    mxl5005s.ko
    dvb-usb-ec168.ko

    This ones are whose I manually load typing every time I startup Linux:

    sudo insmod dvb-core.ko
    sudo insmod dvb-usb.ko
    sudo insmod ec100.ko
    sudo insmod mxl5005s.ko
    sudo insmod dvb-usb-ec168.ko



    Thank youy very much....

            Try this:

            sudo kate /etc/rc.local

            at the end of the file, just BEFORE "exit 0", put the following code:


            modprobe dvb-core.ko
            modprobe dvb-usb.ko
            modprobe ec100.ko
            modprobe mxl5005s.ko
            modprobe dvb-usb-ec168.ko

            Save the file. On your next reboot or run level change those drivers should be loaded.

            One could also use /etc/bash.bashrc Or /etc/profile

            "sudo" is not needed because the files are executed as root.
            "insmode" merely loads the module. "modprobe" also checks for and installs dependencies.
