Dear sirs,

	I located a hauppauge card that had a conexant 878a chipset on it.  This is an video capture card which should supposedly work under the brooktree driver.  The reason I say this is that I found a success story of somone using the pinnacle branded card of the same chipset under freebsd 4-x.  The following modules are loaded:

 2    2 0xc086a000 36d4     iicbus.ko
 3    2 0xc086e000 41d4     iicbb.ko
 4    3 0xc0873000 3720     smbus.ko
 5    1 0xc0877000 3080     smb.ko
 6    1 0xc087b000 43b4     viapm.ko
 7    2 0xc0880000 1f3c     bktr_mem.ko
15    1 0xc44c5000 e000     bktr.ko

	The relevant lines in dmesg on the other hand states that the driver isn't appropriate...

viapropm0: SMBus I/O base at 0x6000
viapropm0: <VIA VT82C686A Power Management Unit> port 0x6000-0x600f at device 7.
4 on pci0
viapropm0: SMBus revision code 0x0
smbus0: <System Management Bus> on viapropm0
smb0: <SMBus generic I/O> on smbus0
pci0: <multimedia, video> at device 9.0 (no driver attached)
pci0: <multimedia> at device 9.1 (no driver attached)

	And of course, the /dev/bktr* devices weren't created, but I've done everything that I think I was suppose to do in the man page, I've emailed roger at freebsd asking about the driver, is there anything I'm seemingly missing ?  At any rate, thank you for your time and attention, I don't know where else to look...
