Hi,

[FreeBSD 4.4]

I have the "Little On Air" TV card (a Korean make), which is BT878.

I have recompiled the kernel with necessary device support and installed
fxtv (1.03) along with other related software.
(See below for kernel configuration and output).

Running fxtv as a regular user does nothing, but COMPLETELY freezing my PC.
Only switching the power off/on brings it back to life.

I have no idea how to debug this.
Any suggestions what's going wrong?

I myself am not a hardware/multimedia expert at all. Just wanted to watch
TV with FreeBSD. I hope someone can help me out here.

Thanks a lot!
Rob.
