richard@cogsci.ed.ac.uk:
|Having not looked at this for a long time, I just installed the 3.0

Doug White:
|I think this is FXTV falling behind reality. It open /dev/bktr0 read-only

Hmm. I'm a little puzzled by this. This was resolved back when we were
cutting the 2.2.6 release (circa March 22), thus the reason for patch-ab in
the fxtv 0.46 port:
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org\
/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-current/ports/graphics/fxtv/patches/patch-ab
which should be what the fxtv 0.46 pkg on the 980520 SNAP was built with.
I guess there must be something I don't know about how packages are built
for SNAPs. This patch should be built-in.
