 2) Loading Modules
 ==================
 
-In default cases bttv is loaded automatically.
-To load the backend either place dvb-bt8xx in etc/modules, or apply manually:
-
-	$ modprobe dvb-bt8xx
-
-All frontends will be loaded automatically.
+Regular case: If the bttv driver detects a bt8xx-based DVB card, all frontend and backend modules will be loaded automatically.
+Exceptions are:
+- Old TwinHan DST cards or clones with or without CA slot and not containing an Eeprom.
 People running udev please see Documentation/dvb/udev.txt.
