I've installed a WinTV PVR 150MCE card in my Dell 4550, which has been running 
FreeBSD 5.3 for many months, and would like to try it with fxtv or 
gnomemeeting. 
Since I'm using a custom kernel which was built without bktr support, I've 
added 
the following to loader.conf (from a read of the bktr man page)...

   bktr_load="YES"
   iccbus_load="YES"
   iccbb="YES"

I already have smbus support in the kernel.

After I boot, kldstat shows all these modules are indeed loaded.  But dmesg 
reports that no driver attached the WinTV.

The following is reported by pciconf -lv...

     [EMAIL PROTECTED]:1:0: class=0x040000 card=0x88010070 chip=0x00164444 
rev=0x01 
hdr=0x00
     vendor   = 'Conexant Inc (Was: Globespan, ICompression Inc)'
     device   = 'iTVC16/CX23416 MPEG Codec'
     class    = multimedia
     subclass = video

Conexant now owns brooktree technology, right?  What have I got wrong?  Could 
it 
be that this WinTV card really doesn't use a brooktree chip that is one of 
those 
supported by bktr?  If so and therefore this WinTV card isn't supported by 
bktr, 
can anyone suggest which WinTV card -would- work?
