How to pass parameters to kernel modules

[Mauro Grauso]

Hi,

I'm installing Ubuntu on my new Sony Picturebook laptop. It is an
ultra small device that also features a builtin camera.

To make a long story short, the module that support the sony devices
is "sonypi" and the module that support the camera is "meye". Both
modules are loaded at startup, but they are not loaded with the
correct parameters.

If I unload the modules by hand and reload them with the correct
parameters, the camera works beautifully.

The parameters are the following:
sonypi camera=1
meye gbuffers=32 video_nr=0 forcev4l1=1

My problem (and question) is to pass the correct parameters to the
kernel at boot time.

Which is the file and syntax to use? I tried various options
(/boot/grub/menu.1st and /etc/modules) but nothing worked. The file
/etc/modules.conf doesnt' exists in Ubuntu, so I'm clueless.

Xubuntu 6.06
linux 2.6.15-27-386

I would appreciate any idea. Thanks.
