How to re-insmod allready loaded modules?
 
Hi, this is my problem:
My TV card (a Haupauge HVR-1100) does not work.
dmesg returns:
Code:

cx2388x dvb driver version 0.0.4 loaded
cx88[0]: Your board isn't known (yet) to the driver.  You can
cx88[0]: try to pick one of the existing card configs via
cx88[0]: card=<n> insmod option.  Updating to the latest
cx88[0]: version might help as well.
cx88[0]: Here is a list of valid choices for the card=<n> insmod option:

I want to gice it a try with 'card=1' so i need to insmode it, like the first few lines tell me, but how can i do this?

when i try to remoce the module with modprobe -r, it tells me that it is being used.
and just re-insmoding the module files does not work.

Please help, polemon

You could try, dangerous as it is, rmmod -f.

ok, i make my card work, but there's still an issue, i can't get no TV stations...
sad as hell

Anyways, i couldn't unload them, because there were still some active dependencys.
i had to unload:

cx8800
cx88_dvb
cx88xx

(in that order)

loading and unloading, i did with modprobe, didn't use insmod anywhere

I have your very same problem. Did you make any progress? The card works fine under winxp but I'd like to use it under LInux
