-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Recent versions of 3.0-current have the bktr driver built in.
Older versions of 3.0 and all versions of 2.2 need to have the driver
files installed by hand. If you find you have no /sys/pci/brooktree848.c
file in your source tree, you will need to do the following:
cp ioctl_bt848.h /sys/i386/include/
cp brktree_reg.h brooktree848.c /sys/pci/
And in /sys/conf/files add:
pci/brooktree848.c optional bktr device-driver
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In all cases you will need to add the driver to your kernel:
In your kernel configuration file:
controller pci0 #if you already have this line don't add it.
device bktr0
There is no need to specify DMA channels nor interrupts for this
driver.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Finally you need to create nodes for the driver:
Create a video device:
mknod /dev/bktr0 c 92 0
Create a tuner device:
mknod /dev/tuner0 c 92 16
Or, if your /dev/MAKEDEV script is up to date (and you can copy the latest
from /usr/src/etc/etc.i386/MAKEDEV) simply type: cd /dev && ./MAKEDEV bktr0
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The code attempts to auto-probe code to detect card/tuner types.
The detected card is printed in the dmesg as the driver is loaded. If
this fails to detect the proper card you can override it in brooktree848.c:
#define OVERRIDE_CARD <card type>
where <card type> is one of:
CARD_UNKNOWN
CARD_MIRO
CARD_HAUPPAUGE
CARD_STB
CARD_INTEL
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This model now separates the "tuner control" items into a minor device:
minor device layout: xxxxxxxx xxxT UUUU
UUUU: the card (ie UNIT) identifier, 0 thru 15
T == 0: video device
T == 1: tuner device
Access your tuner ioctl thru your tuner device handle and anything
which controls the video capture process thru the video device handle.
Certain ioctl()s such as video source are available thru both devices.

The bt848 driver consists of:
src/sys/i386/include/ioctl_bt848.h
src/sys/pci/brktree_reg.h
src/sys/pci/brooktree848.c
