hvr 2200 firmware long time to load

[AuXBoX]

I've installed Ubuntu (Minimal and Server) 10.04 Lucid and XBMC with VDR

In Ubuntu (Minimal and Server) 10.04 Lucid the Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-2200 firmware takes a long time to load which causes VDR at boot up to not load because it can't see any tv tuners.

It loads at about 20 seconds

Usually the firmware is loaded sooner before VDR loads
