I have a formac proTV card in my G4 tower. Due to the lack of a driver from formac, the only way to use it is to reboot into os9. Does anyone know of any OSX drivers that will work for this card?
I did find the post below on macfixit.com and successfully downloaded the mentioned driver in it's compiled form, but I have no idea how to install it -- I know nothing about unix or extensions in OSX. I put the .kext file in the library>extensions folder, but it seems to have done nothing. Any help with this would also be greatly appreciated...
>>>I haven't seen any manufacturer's drivers, but some Darwin developers are working on a side project for the Btxxx chipsets (Bt848, Bt849, Bt878, Bt879, etc.) I don't know if there is a compiled version, but you can get the source using the setup instructons here:

then running:
cvs -z3 checkout IO/Drivers/PCI/AppleBt8xx <<<
