modprobe.conf help - multiple SAA7134 cards?



Use "options saa7134 card=70,70" or run "modprobe saa7134 card=70,70" , you
will get device node /dev/video0 linked to your 1st card and /dev/video1
linked to your 2nd card. Both working at same time.

Subject: modprobe.conf help - multiple SAA7134 cards?


Hey,

I have two identical Phillips SAA7134 based cards (Compro VideoMate
DVBT300), what do I need to add to my /etc/modprobe.conf (on an FC4
system) to get it to pick up both cards?

dmesg and lspci shows both cards as existing, however the second card
isn't picked up as a VideoMate:

$ dmesg | grep saa7134
saa7134[0]: found at 0000:00:0c.0, rev: 1, irq: 18, latency: 32,

$ lspci | grep saa7134
00:0c.0 Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors SAA7134 Video
Broadcast Decoder (rev 01)
00:0d.0 Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors SAA7134 Video
Broadcast Decoder (rev 01)

Further more, later on in dmesg, you can see:

DVB: registering new adapter (saa7134[0]).

...but no corresponding line for the second card, saa7134[1].

My modprobe.conf contains:

# Compro Videomate T300 driver
alias char-major-81 saa7134
options saa7134 card=70

Any pointers?

Thanks!

Ben
