In runvdr I check for the existance of the trigger file:

while [ -a /tmp/dvb-insmod ]; do sleep1 done

This way the vdr startup is delayd until the insmod is finished. (may be there are mor sofisticated method to do this, but it works).

I've tried this and it works with the trigger file, but it's about 10 seconds slower than without checking the existing of the trigger file. Strange...don't know....

Probably because without the trigger file, vdr start up before the driver finished loading. If it works it's ok, but I saw the risk that the driver is not "ready enough" and vdr startup fails.
