This issue kinda fell off this thread with no mention of a possible
solution.  I have a PVR-250 card and tried installing the pvr250 port.
 I can stream video via mplayer /dev/cxm0 and set the channel, but
when I run mythtv-setup, it says it failed to probe the device.  I
tried the original sys file from my windows install cd as well as a
sys file from hauppage directly, both have the same result.  Was there
any determination/work-around for the ioctl issue?

This card works with KnoppMyth (whichever version was .18 of Myth)
