If you re using a distribution kernel, the one installed by your
distribution at install time then the chances are your driver which is
called radio-zoltrix is in module form.
modprobe radio-zoltrix
should detect the card if not you will need to pass parameters with modprobe
modprobe radio-zoltrix io=0xXXX where XXX is a 3 digit number.
For automatic installation when one runs kmod or kerneld you can define the
options in /etc/conf.modules or /etc/modules.conf depending on which
modutils version you use.
Here is an example of a Brooktree bttv radio and TV card.
alias char-major-81 videodev
alias char-major-81-0 bttv
alias char-major-81-64 bttv
alias char-major-81-224 bttv
pre-install bttv /sbin/modprobe -k tuner
options tuner type=5
options bttv card=11 pll=1 radio=1
The videodev alias you can use its the same for your card, the rest is
meant as a referance.
If you have more problems i suggest you send a mail to the
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
They will have more spesified answers for you one would think.
