SUCCESS!!!!!!!! Pardon my joy. :) I finally got it working! This was the problem: > [ 87.467457] ivtv0: Unreasonably low latency timer, setting to 64 (was 32) > [ 87.986897] PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:00:1b.0 to 64 My BIOS default PCI Latency timer setting is 32. I saw this log entry and thought to try adjust it to 64 in the BIOS. I confirmed with linux again and dmesg showed that ivtv did not adjust it after I made the BIOS change and it still worked in Linux. Loaded up BSD and presto - cxm works now! And 'mplayer /dev/cxm0' is working here too. Awesome! :) So I guess someone should make a note in the port that the PCI Latency timer BIOS setting must be 64? Maybe I'm the first of many to hit this. I guess ideally the driver should correct it as with linux, but if not hopefully this post helps others. I am running an Intel DG33BU motherboard BTW. Got some more experimenting to do. Need to figure out all my channel frequencies now. Should be fun. :) Thanks all for your time and help. Thanks usleep for keeping this driver updated! Thanks, Aragon
