=====================
 v1.0	First Release
=====================

- Initial release.
=====================

About:
======
 
Basically this fix is a workaround for a bug in enigma where the saved 
satellite positions are corrupted upon re-boot. This bug is not apparent in
the northern hemisphere due to their satellites having at most 2 digits ie. 19.2E

In the southern hemisphere, particular Asia / Australia, this patch may be useful.

The patch must be invoke prior to enigma starting up and requires a modification
to be made to the /var/tuxbox/start_enigma file.

This workaround, will only work 100% for Eastern Sats. Western sats will retain there
position, however they will restore with an East setting.

i.e. 180W will restore as 180E however 156E will restore properly.
 
Installation:
=============
 
- FTP the motorfix10.tar.gz file to your DreamBox /var/tmp directory
- telnet into your DreamBox
- cd /
- gunzip /var/tmp/motorfix10.tar.gz
- tar -xvf /var/tmp/motorfix10.tar
- This should install one file /var/bin/motorfix.
- chmod 755 /var/bin/motorfix (this file should already have these permissions)
- Once installed, you will need to modify your /var/tuxbox/start_engima script.
 
Editing start_enigma:
=====================
 
In order for the workaround to execute you will need to modify the 
/var/tuxbox/start_enigma file.

On the second line (after #!/bin/sh) add the following:

/var/bin/motorfix

save the file and reboot.
