[gentoo-user] bttv options

Where do I setup the options for the bttv module?

I need to set the card=40 and tuner =6, no matter what I try I still get:


bttv0: Bt848 (rev 17) at 0000:00:05.0, irq: 16, latency: 32, mmio:

I've tried setting in  /etc/modules.d/aliases as

alias char-major-81    bttv
options bttv  card=40 tuner=6
options tuner           type=6

This does not seem to have an affect. Is there some docs that show the
proper way of doing this in Gentoo?

I created a file "bttv" in /etc/modules.d/ and placed the following
within it:

alias char-major-81    bttv
options bttv  card=40 tuner=6

This did the trick : )
