pkg-message
Shown after installing
The Quadra card is an NVMe controller (e.g. /dev/nvme1 and /dev/nvme1n1).
libxcoder opens both nodes, which are root-only by default. To let the
members of a group (here "video") use the card, add to /etc/devfs.rules:

  [localrules=10]
  add path 'nvme1' mode 0660 group video
  add path 'nvme1n1' mode 0660 group video

then set devfs_system_ruleset="localrules" in /etc/rc.conf and run
"service devfs restart". Use the unit numbers of your Quadra card:
ni_rsrc_list shows them. Do not give access to your system disks.

libxcoder keeps its lock and shared memory files in /tmp (NI_LCK_*).

quadra_fw_upgrade (with nvmefw) flashes the card's firmware. Run it with
-n first (dry run).
