we could. but i am not as far in autodetecting the cardtypes that this
would work. furthermore, i have contacted the author of the original
port and he is not very forthcoming. furthermore the pvr250-port is
maintained by Edwin Groothuis, who has no inside knowledge of the
code.
it is my intention to make this port work for all hauppauge pvr-style
cards ( alla ivtv ). that's why i want it committed to the ports tree,
and announce it on multimedia. at this moment, the driver works for 3
people ( including me ).

no, me neither. first time i used pr-send. i assumed they would take
sensible default values, sorry.
