!!Misc
The driver for the radio tuner on the saa7134 tv tuner card seemed to have been broken for LinuxKernel 2.6.8, but works again in 2.6.9.
+!!Kernel parameters
+There is an insmod parameter for saa7134 "radio_nr" that specifies the number of radion device and ther is probably no "radio" flag parameter,
+by which you can turn the support on/off (use modinfo for more info). But if you want to use a radio and your doesn't have an EEPROM, you must
+set the "card" parameter explicitly and the board you set MUST have a builtin radion. Otherwise the radio just won't play, and no error message
+appears.
