Problems with bktr on -current
Hello, I've got some trouble with the bktr-driver on FreeBSD 5.x.

Does anybody have similar problems or does anybody know what changes might have caused this problem? Here's the relevant dmesg output: bktr0: BrookTree 878 mem 0xd700-0xd7000fff irq 9 at device 10.0 on pci0 bktr0: Hauppauge Model 44354 C242 bktr0: Detected a MSP3415G-B8 at 0x80 bktr0: Hauppauge WinCast/TV, Philips FR1216 PAL FM tuner, msp3400c stereo, remote control.

I wasn't able to test it with xawtv since it's still broken on 5.x. Interesting. I've also seen some visual peculiarities with fxtv lately on my 5.1-CURRENT box under similar circumstances: if I move windows around, sometimes video garbage is left behind -- especially alternating scanlines. I haven't tried backing out to earlier versions, though, so I'll give that a try and see if the problem goes away.
