usleep's pvrxxx port and /boot/loader.conf - panic

Fri Jan 1 23:18:12 UTC 2010

It looks like usleep's pvrxxx port (the 09042008 version) works quite
nicely with my Hauppauge PVR-500 under FreeBSD 7.2-stable:

(Note: I haven't actually tested it with mplayer etc yet, that is why I say that it "looks" like it works.
But it will work).
But ther is one slight problem: if I try to load the cxm_iic and cxm modules in /boot/loader.conf,
the machine panics during boot.
If I load the modules manually after boot, everything is fine.

Is there some other place that I can load these modules autmatically, after the machine has booted?
A startup script or something like it?
