The kernel module is expecting a single string parameter called "config", and you are trying to set its value to "firmware=hm2/5i20/SVST8_4.BIT num_pwmgens=1" But the shell is interpreting the space in that string as a separator. What is actually getting sent to the module is two parameters: 1) a string called "config" containing "firmware=hm2/5i20/SVST8_4.BIT" 2) an integer (probably) called "num_pwmgens", with the value 1 Since the module doesn't want a parameter called "num_pwmgens", it causes an error. IMO this isn't a great way to handle configs, but for the short term, try quoting the entire thing with single quotes, like so: loadrt hm2_5i20 'config="firmware=hm2/5i20/SVST8_4.BIT num_pwmgens=1"' You might also try entering the command in an interactive halcmd session, or using a .hal file - that will probably avoid bash parsing, which _might_ be where things are being split apart.
