Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!

3 | module, among them a complete and up-to-date list of insmod options. | ||
4 | This list tends to be outdated because it is updated manually ... | ||
5 | |||
6 | ========================================================================== | ||
7 | |||
8 | bttv.o | ||
9 | the bt848/878 (grabber chip) driver | ||
10 | |||
11 | insmod args: | ||
12 | card=n card type, see CARDLIST for a list. | ||
13 | tuner=n tuner type, see CARDLIST for a list. | ||
14 | radio=0/1 card supports radio | ||
15 | pll=0/1/2 pll settings | ||
16 | 0: don't use PLL | ||
17 | 1: 28 MHz crystal installed | ||
18 | 2: 35 MHz crystal installed | ||
19 | |||
20 | triton1=0/1 for Triton1 (+others) compatibility | ||
21 | vsfx=0/1 yet another chipset bug compatibility bit | ||
22 | see README.quirks for details on these two. | ||
23 | |||
24 | bigendian=n Set the endianness of the gfx framebuffer. | ||
25 | Default is native endian. | ||
26 | fieldnr=0/1 Count fields. Some TV descrambling software | ||
27 | needs this, for others it only generates | ||
28 | 50 useless IRQs/sec. default is 0 (off). | ||
29 | autoload=0/1 autoload helper modules (tuner, audio). | ||
30 | default is 1 (on). | ||
31 | bttv_verbose=0/1/2 verbose level (at insmod time, while | ||
32 | looking at the hardware). default is 1. | ||
33 | bttv_debug=0/1 debug messages (for capture). | ||
34 | default is 0 (off). | ||
35 | irq_debug=0/1 irq handler debug messages. | ||
36 | default is 0 (off). | ||
37 | gbuffers=2-32 number of capture buffers for mmap'ed capture. | ||
38 | default is 4. | ||
39 | gbufsize= size of capture buffers. default and | ||
40 | maximum value is 0x208000 (~2MB) | ||
41 | no_overlay=0 Enable overlay on broken hardware. There | ||
42 | are some chipsets (SIS for example) which | ||
43 | are known to have problems with the PCI DMA | ||
44 | push used by bttv. bttv will disable overlay | ||
45 | by default on this hardware to avoid crashes. | ||
46 | With this insmod option you can override this. | ||
47 | automute=0/1 Automatically mutes the sound if there is | ||
48 | no TV signal, on by default. You might try | ||
49 | to disable this if you have bad input signal | ||
50 | quality which leading to unwanted sound | ||
51 | dropouts. | ||
52 | chroma_agc=0/1 AGC of chroma signal, off by default. | ||
53 | adc_crush=0/1 Luminance ADC crush, on by default. | ||
54 | |||
55 | bttv_gpio=0/1 | ||
56 | gpiomask= | ||
57 | audioall= | ||
58 | audiomux= | ||
59 | See Sound-FAQ for a detailed description. | ||
60 | |||
61 | remap, card, radio and pll accept up to four comma-separated arguments | ||
62 | (for multiple boards). | ||
63 | |||
64 | tuner.o | ||
65 | The tuner driver. You need this unless you want to use only | ||
66 | with a camera or external tuner ... | ||
67 | |||
68 | insmod args: | ||
69 | debug=1 print some debug info to the syslog | ||
70 | type=n type of the tuner chip. n as follows: | ||
71 | see CARDLIST for a complete list. | ||
72 | pal=[bdgil] select PAL variant (used for some tuners | ||
73 | only, important for the audio carrier). | ||
74 | |||
75 | tvmixer.o | ||
76 | registers a mixer device for the TV card's volume/bass/treble | ||
77 | controls (requires a i2c audio control chip like the msp3400). | ||
78 | |||
79 | insmod args: | ||
80 | debug=1 print some debug info to the syslog. | ||
81 | devnr=n allocate device #n (0 == /dev/mixer, | ||
82 | 1 = /dev/mixer1, ...), default is to | ||
83 | use the first free one. | ||
84 | |||
85 | tvaudio.o | ||
86 | new, experimental module which is supported to provide a single | ||
87 | driver for all simple i2c audio control chips (tda/tea*). | ||
88 | |||
89 | insmod args: | ||
90 | tda8425 = 1 enable/disable the support for the | ||
91 | tda9840 = 1 various chips. | ||
92 | tda9850 = 1 The tea6300 can't be autodetected and is | ||
93 | tda9855 = 1 therefore off by default, if you have | ||
94 | tda9873 = 1 this one on your card (STB uses these) | ||
95 | tda9874a = 1 you have to enable it explicitly. | ||
96 | tea6300 = 0 The two tda985x chips use the same i2c | ||
97 | tea6420 = 1 address and can't be disturgished from | ||
98 | pic16c54 = 1 each other, you might have to disable | ||
99 | the wrong one. | ||
100 | debug = 1 print debug messages | ||
101 | |||
102 | insmod args for tda9874a: | ||
103 | tda9874a_SIF=1/2 select sound IF input pin (1 or 2) | ||
104 | (default is pin 1) | ||
105 | tda9874a_AMSEL=0/1 auto-mute select for NICAM (default=0) | ||
106 | Please read note 3 below! | ||
107 | tda9874a_STD=n select TV sound standard (0..8): | ||
108 | 0 - A2, B/G | ||
109 | 1 - A2, M (Korea) | ||
110 | 2 - A2, D/K (1) | ||
111 | 3 - A2, D/K (2) | ||
112 | 4 - A2, D/K (3) | ||
113 | 5 - NICAM, I | ||
114 | 6 - NICAM, B/G | ||
115 | 7 - NICAM, D/K (default) | ||
116 | 8 - NICAM, L | ||
117 | |||
118 | Note 1: tda9874a supports both tda9874h (old) and tda9874a (new) chips. | ||
119 | Note 2: tda9874h/a and tda9875 (which is supported separately by | ||
120 | tda9875.o) use the same i2c address so both modules should not be | ||
121 | used at the same time. | ||
122 | Note 3: Using tda9874a_AMSEL option depends on your TV card design! | ||
123 | AMSEL=0: auto-mute will switch between NICAM sound | ||
124 | and the sound on 1st carrier (i.e. FM mono or AM). | ||
125 | AMSEL=1: auto-mute will switch between NICAM sound | ||
126 | and the analog mono input (MONOIN pin). | ||
127 | If tda9874a decoder on your card has MONOIN pin not connected, then | ||
128 | use only tda9874_AMSEL=0 or don't specify this option at all. | ||
129 | For example: | ||
130 | card=65 (FlyVideo 2000S) - set AMSEL=1 or AMSEL=0 | ||
131 | card=72 (Prolink PV-BT878P rev.9B) - set AMSEL=0 only | ||
132 | |||
133 | msp3400.o | ||
134 | The driver for the msp34xx sound processor chips. If you have a | ||
135 | stereo card, you probably want to insmod this one. | ||
136 | |||
137 | insmod args: | ||
138 | debug=1/2 print some debug info to the syslog, | ||
139 | 2 is more verbose. | ||
140 | simple=1 Use the "short programming" method. Newer | ||
141 | msp34xx versions support this. You need this | ||
142 | for dbx stereo. Default is on if supported by | ||
143 | the chip. | ||
144 | once=1 Don't check the TV-stations Audio mode | ||
145 | every few seconds, but only once after | ||
146 | channel switches. | ||
147 | amsound=1 Audio carrier is AM/NICAM at 6.5 Mhz. This | ||
148 | should improve things for french people, the | ||
149 | carrier autoscan seems to work with FM only... | ||
150 | |||
151 | tea6300.o - OBSOLETE (use tvaudio instead) | ||
152 | The driver for the tea6300 fader chip. If you have a stereo | ||
153 | card and the msp3400.o doesn't work, you might want to try this | ||
154 | one. This chip is seen on most STB TV/FM cards (usually from | ||
155 | Gateway OEM sold surplus on auction sites). | ||
156 | |||
157 | insmod args: | ||
158 | debug=1 print some debug info to the syslog. | ||
159 | |||
160 | tda8425.o - OBSOLETE (use tvaudio instead) | ||
161 | The driver for the tda8425 fader chip. This driver used to be | ||
162 | part of bttv.c, so if your sound used to work but does not | ||
163 | anymore, try loading this module. | ||
164 | |||
165 | insmod args: | ||
166 | debug=1 print some debug info to the syslog. | ||
167 | |||
168 | tda985x.o - OBSOLETE (use tvaudio instead) | ||
169 | The driver for the tda9850/55 audio chips. | ||
170 | |||
171 | insmod args: | ||
172 | debug=1 print some debug info to the syslog. | ||
173 | chip=9850/9855 set the chip type. | ||
