RTFM ;-)  It IS in the documentation that is installed with your distro

try "locate bttv | more" for a start.

the former,  modprobe bttv tuner=x when x is number, if you have a phillips 
ntsc tuner (likley) then you want tuner=2 or possibly tuner=6.

You might also look at the posting I made a few days ago under the multiple 
tuner cards thread.

As above RTFM, or search for the bttv mini-howto
