I now know what's wrong: Unlike the old kaffeine which looked for dvb devices itself, the KDE4 version relies on x11/kdelibs4 to find them (, src/dvb/dvbdevice_linux.cpp in kaffeine sources), which in turn relies on sysutils/hal (solid/solid/backends/hal/haldvbinterface.cpp in kdelibs), and at least hal doesn't know about dvb devices on FreeBSD yet, they are only handled in hald/linux/device.c in hal sources. I've Cc'd the hal and kdelibs port maintainers in case they want to look at this... HTH, Juergen
