This morning I decided to try to bring up my STB TV/PCI card under
FBSD 2.2-STABLE.  I've got the xftv 0.44 package installed, the bktr0
and tuner0 devices created and I get video.... but...

The colors are way off and I don't get video within the Xwindow at all
at 24bpp.  At first I thought I was using the entire color palette with
XV or Netscape but once I killed them off I still had the same problem.
When I drop back to 8bpp (or the default, I don't remember) I get video 
contained within the Xwindow but the same color scheme.

I'm more of a system user (at least for video) than a hacker some hand
holding my be needed.

Any suggestions?  I've got a PPro180 with STB Velocity 3D (8MB), XFree86
3.3.1
all this being run by AfterStep.  If need be I can include a frame grab
of the
video output, It's pretty ugly.
