Passing parameters to modules in Ubuntu
In this example, I pass the parameter “card=42″ to the module “saa7134″ when the module loads at boot time.
- Add your module to /etc/modules
# /etc/modules: kernel modules to load at boot time.
#
# This file contains the names of kernel modules
# that should be loaded at boot time, one per line.
# Lines beginning with "#" are ignored.
saa7134
- Add options saa7134 card=42 to the end of /etc/modprobe.d/options
# Enable double-buffering so gstreamer et. al. work
options quickcam compatible=2
# Default hostap to managed mode
options hostap_pci iw_mode=2
options hostap_cs iw_mode=2
# Stop auto-association.
# LP: #264104
options ipw2200 associate=0
# XXX: Ignore HPA by default. Needs to be revisted in jaunty
options libata ignore_hpa=1
options saa7134 card=42
Now reboot and you should be all set.
