The card works flawless under Windows XP but I need to get it working under FreeBSD. I'm using FreeBSD/i386 6.2-PRERELEASE from 4 days ago on the same box. I use the pvr-250 from the latest ports: Dec 22 18:23:19 babylon kernel: cxm0: mem 0xc8000000-0xcbffffff irq 17 at device 7.0 on pci5 Dec 22 18:23:19 babylon kernel: cxm_iic0: on cxm0 Dec 22 18:23:19 babylon kernel: iicbb0: on cxm_iic0 Dec 22 18:23:19 babylon kernel: iicbus0: on iicbb0 master-only Dec 22 18:23:19 babylon kernel: iicsmb0: on iicbus0 Dec 22 18:23:19 babylon kernel: smbus2: on iicsmb0 Dec 22 18:23:19 babylon kernel: cxm0: Philips FM1216ME MK3 tuner Dec 22 18:23:19 babylon kernel: cxm0: SAA7115 rev 1 video decoder Dec 22 18:23:19 babylon kernel: cxm0: MSP4418G-B3 audio decoder Dec 22 18:23:19 babylon kernel: cxm0: IR Remote Dec 22 18:23:19 babylon kernel: cxm0: [GIANT-LOCKED] Dec 22 18:23:22 babylon kernel: cxm0: encoder firmware version 0x2050032 Dec 22 18:23:22 babylon kernel: cxm0: decoder firmware version 0x2020023 The trouble is that the picture gets periodically darker about 2 times a second. It almost looks like if a windmill were casting shadows. Another strange thing is that i often have to use "pvr250-setchannel -a off" or else I could not set the channel: Dec 22 18:24:05 babylon kernel: cxm0: video decoder failed to lock Dec 22 18:24:15 babylon kernel: cxm0: video decoder failed to lock I hope that anybody can help me to this great card working. -- Bye Frank
