    Hi,

    I'm trying to build a PVR using a Pundit-R, the hauppauge pvr-350 and SuSE 9.3
    The card can tune channels, the remote works, but I can't use the tvout. The
    card is well supported through the ivtv driver, although it's not supported
    by SuSE, they provide the rpm packages. To enable the tvout function of my
    pvr-350 I need to load a kernel module named "saa7127" with some parameters.
    The problems is that some parameters doesn't work. For example:

    List of supported parameters:

    gardenia:~ # modinfo saa7127
    filename: /lib/modules/2.6.11.4-20a-default/extra/saa7127.ko
    description: Philips SAA7127 video encoder driver
    author: Roy Bulter
    license: GPL
    vermagic: 2.6.11.4-20a-default 586 REGPARM gcc-3.3
    depends: i2c-core
    srcversion: 4E514F920A6EE78E468B895
    parm: test_image:test_image (0-1) (int)
    parm: debug:debug level (0-2) (int)
    parm: force:List of adapter,address pairs to boldly assume to be
    present (array of short)
    parm: ignore_range:List of adapter,start-addr,end-addr triples not
    to scan (array of short)
    parm: ignore:List of adapter,address pairs not to scan (array of
    short)
    parm: probe_range:List of adapter,start-addr,end-addr triples to
    scan additionally (array of short)
    parm: probe:List of adapter,address pairs to scan additionally
    (array of short)
    parm: i2c_enable:which 150/350 cards to activate the saa7127,
    conflicts with cx25840 or pvr150 (1-8i)

    Loading the module without parameters works:
    modprobe saa7127

    But loading the module with the test_image as parm fails:

    gardenia:~ # modprobe saa7127 test_image=1
    FATAL: Error inserting saa7127
    (/lib/modules/2.6.11.4-20a-default/extra/saa7127.ko): Unknown symbol in
    module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)

    In dmesg:

    saa7127: unsupported module, tainting kernel.
    saa7127: Unknown parameter `test_image'
    saa7127: Ignoring new-style parameters in presence of obsolete ones
    load_module: err 0xfffffffe (dont worry)

    Why if the parameter is correct the module can't be loaded?
    Can someone try to load it with the same parameter and see if it loads
    correctly?
    Has anyone configured mythtv with suse 9.3?

    Thanks!
