See /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults/Fxtv, you can add channel names <--> frequencies there. I got my set of frequencies from my cable provider's info (I'm in Holland). They should have that info somewhere for their customers. I think if you have such a config file for fxtv in your ~ directory it's called just Fxtv or rcsh something like that (I remember installing NetBSD on another slice about 3 months ago and using a shared home partition and it immediately used the stations I had set up as well as the fonts/colors). See the fxtv man page also. Lately I've been using (k)mplayer for tv but I did use fxtv a lot before. I don't have it installed at present though. HTH, Dan
