 From memory I think the error 6 is due to not attaching properly. My 
kernel spits out these messages:

What version of pvr250 are you using? Mine is:

[root at hairball /usr/ports/multimedia/pvr250]# pkg info -I pvr250
pvr250-20101010_1              Hauppauge PVR-250/350 TV cards driver for 
the cxm device
[root at hairball /usr/ports/multimedia/pvr250]#
