Pete,

   Take a look at:

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?O=0&K=phillips&do_Search=Go

   Not exactly your card (Kernel V4L modules for Phillips SAA7134 cards), but 
you might be able to grab the tarball and take a look at the PKGBUILD script 
and modify it for use with the SAA 7231 chipset. I have no idea what the 
phillips card is and this package is old, but it seems to suggest that the 
capabilities that it provided are included in video4linux and already available.

   Also take a look at: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=103348  It 
discusses the same thing (I think)

   Glad to see you :) Good luck.
