How to add option to kernel modules when it load

[dusman]

Hi there,

I have the saa7134 competible card installed. It used to work with Zoneminder; after I upgrade to FC5/ZM 1.2.3; the ZM only display grey color image.

I would like to know how to add option to a module when it load to kernel.

I try insmod saa7134 card=2, for example. but it seems did not work.


The following are the dmesg output ..

saa7130[0]: found at 0000:02:00.0, rev: 1, irq: 20, latency: 32, mmio: 0xec000000
saa7134: <rant>
saa7134: Congratulations! Your TV card vendor saved a few
saa7134: cents for a eeprom, thus your pci board has no

saa7134: </rant>
saa7134: I feel better now. Ok, here are the good news:
saa7134: You can use the card=<nr> insmod option to specify

Normally you can add options in /etc/modprobe.conf, so in your case add a a line like

Code: Select all

options saa7134 card=2

to it.
