The bktr device has changed it's major number.  It is now major number
92.

eivind(bitbox)/tmp% ls -l /dev/bktr0 /dev/tuner0 
crw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   92,   0 Mar  2 18:38 /dev/bktr0
crw-r--r--  1 root  wheel   92,  16 Mar  2 18:38 /dev/tuner0
eivind(bitbox)/tmp% 

% rm /dev/bktr0  && mknod /dev/bktr0  c 92  0
% rm /dev/tuner0 && mknod /dev/tuner0 c 92 16

should set you up fine if this is the problem.

Also be aware that old versions of fxtv now must run as root.

Eivind.
