JC Pollman:
|I need some info concerning fxtv and /dev
|
|I compiled a new kernel with bt8484 support - and I see it is operational
|when I boot. I downloaded and compiled your latest fxtv. But when I try
|to run it, it complains about /dev/bktr0 not existing. How do I fix this?
|I do not know the major/minor.
No problem. Here's what you do to create the devices.
The simple route:
> su
# cd /dev
# sh MAKEDEV bktr0
Or alternatively:
# cd /dev
# mknod bktr0 c 92 0
# mknod tuner0 c 92 16
|Also, as this is a hauppauge card with a radio, do you know the /dev info
|to get the radio part working as well?
|
|I am running FreeBSD 3.0 and a Hauppauge 401 card.
The radio part is managed by the same driver AFAIK, so once you've created
the above entries, you're done in /dev.
I personally don't know much about the radio side. But here is a URL that
I saved off a while back:
ftp://login.dknet.dk/pub/fj/radio.tgz Flemming Jacobsen <fj@login.dknet.dk>
which I see is linked off the Bt848 home page:
