However, It does work better then before. Now I get 4-5 fuzzy channels and one that comes in clear, but it's in Black n' White, and Its the home shopping network, ick. which patch was that btw? Its detected now as this: bktr0: mem 0xec7fe000-0xec7fefff irq 17 at device 4.0 on pci2 bktr0: [GIANT-LOCKED] bktr0: tuner @ 0xc0 bktr0: MT2032: Companycode=4d54 Part=04 Revision=04 bktr0: Detected a MSP3440G-B6 at 0x80 bktr0: Pinnacle PCTV Rave, MT2032 tuner, msp3400c stereo. pci2: at device 4.1 (no driver attached) and again I try'ed all the sysctls etc and its a no go, thanks for the help though.
