//     Ok here goes I have an AllinWonder and was well curious I see that

I've had the same question some time ago, as I have also a AIW.

The great thing about the bt848 chip is that it does all interfacing
with PCI bus, including memory transfer.  The Bt829 chip in AIW is
just a video decoder, and must be driven by the Rage II chip to work.
They are not compatible, and thre's no near intention to make a driver
for AIW or ATI-TV for FreeBSD (at least, none that I know).

But if you have any good clue for AIW, please tell me.  I'm stuck with
Winblows with that one.  :(
