OK, your card doesn't seem to have an eeprom. Not a problem, though.

There is no SAA713x card #129. We're up to #91, right now.

As you can see here, you're giving saa7134 an invalid card=X argument,
and it's assuming card #0

Please try the dmesg again, on a freshly booted system (without any
active v4l modules), and without manually loading any modules (they
should be automatically loaded on card insertion). Also, do not grep for
saa7134. Just paste the whole dmesg output starting from the "Linux
video capture interface: v1.00" line. There are other relevant modules.

However... since your card does not have an eeprom, automatic detection
of other chips won't work, so the dmesg will probably be of little help;
you'll have to find out which tuner chip is on that card, either by
opening it or by reading the .INF file from the Windows driver.
