[linux-dvb] Anysee E30 Combo Plus startup mode

[Alexander Saers]

Hello Benjamin

Thanx for the reply. Good to know that I'm not alone with the issue :-).

The idee to simply remove the dvb-t part from the code was something i have
thought of. However if you do that you need to build a custom kernel every
time a security update is released. This can be a real pain :)

However I came up with the following simple solution to the problem. I just
prevent the modules from being loaded. Just edit
/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf and add the following at the end of it.

If you want dvb-c add this
blacklist zl10353

if you want dvb-t add this
blacklist tda10023

And then reboot the computer. Almost to simple :)

Br
Alexander
