Documented at the Fedora Project site:

So no news - pointed to numerous times since FC3 came out.

Not really sure what you put into the /etc/modprobe.conf.
"/sbin/modprobe card=34 tuner=2" is a nonsense command.

options bttv card=34 tuner=2

in the /etc/modprobe.conf will set this options for the bttv module if
it is loaded by the system.
