DESCRIPTION
Thecxm
driver provides support for the PCI
video
capture on the Hauppauge PVR-250/350. It uses the
bktr(4) and Meteor driver ioctls.
Note that in order for the cxm
driver to

driver CD-ROM prior to compiling the kernel. The tool necessary to do this
can be found in
/usr/src/tools/multimedia/cxm/extract_fw.
