a helpful modification for /etc/init.d/AMBEserver

[csylvain]

"as is" the parameters are plug-n-play for the DVDongle (blue box), right? it needs to be a little different for the ThumbDV dongle (formerly DV3000u).

the documentation available is for both old versions of hardware and AMBEserver and new versions - though it seems the older docs are more abundant. it makes for confusion.

so, with this small change, at least there will be something to point a newcomer in the right direction: `#! /bin/sh
