   * .request_firmware = philips_tu1216_request_firmware,
   * run /usr/src/linux/Documentation/dvb/get_dvb_firmware and copy the dvb-fe-tda10046.fw to /lib/firmware
   * modprobe saa7134 card=78 gpio_tracking=1
   * see http://www.spinics.net/lists/vfl/msg27672.html
   * STOP PRESS - the Mercurial version "emerge v4l-dvb-hg" gives the card a proper card number of 112.
   * The card can then be brought up with "modprobe saa7134 card=112 tuner=54 gpio_tracking=1 i2c_scan=1". You may also need to modprobe saa7134-dvb and saa7134-alsa. This works now but may not continue to do so.
