A. Optional Arguments for Loading Modules
videodev.o
−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−
This is the basic video4linux module, all video
drivers (incl. bttv) register themselves here.
i2c.o
−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−
The generic i2c module. It does much of the i2c bus
management, all other modules (except videodev.o)
use this one.
modprobe args:
scan=1 scan the bus for i2c devices
verbose=0 shut up i2c
i2c_debug=1 for debugging, it sticks the
whole (software) i2c bus traffic to the syslog
bttv.o
−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−
The bt848 (grabber chip) driver.
modprobe args:
remap=adr remap Bt848 memory to address less than 20
vidmem=base frame buffer address over 20 (of
graphic card)
triton1=0/1 for Triton1 compatibility; Triton1 is
automatically recognized but this might also help with other chipsets
pll=0/1/2 pll settings (0: don't use PLL; 1: 28 MHz crystal installed
2: 35 MHz crystal installed
radio=0/1 card supports radio
card=n card type: see the next section for the complete list;
remap, card, radio and pll accept up to four comma−separated arguments
(for multiple boards). The CARD and PLL defines from the Makefile
are used as defaults.
msp3400.o
−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−
The driver for the msp34xx sound processor chips. If you have a
