[mythtv-users] question about Shuttle and SiS video

[evan]

  Just wanted to ask this question again.  I'm using a Shuttle  computer with SiS video, Fedora 4, and a Hauppauge PVR350 card.   After installing the IVTV firmware driver in step #10 of the Wilsonnet  setup guide, I get a problem upon reboot.  As Linux is loading  modules and drivers...the screen goes black with a few random blocks  here and there.
  
  I'm pretty much stuck there.  Anyone else have a similar issue and  a solution to it?  Or is there a way to prevent it from loading  drivers or modules?
  
  If I let Linux boot until I don't see hard-drive activity...I can't get to a console.
  
  Thanks,
  evan

Well, being such a lengthy setup to that point, I'd prefer not to have to trash
it and start again.  Is there a way to disable, or pick and choose what modules
get loaded on startup, before they actually load (and disable my video output)?

Thanks,
evan
