Hello.

I've been running a MythTV-box on top of Ubuntun Feisty for a year now
without a hitch, using Technotrend C-1500 Budget card. Now I bought the new
Terratec Cinergy C and installed the Mantis drivers I got from
http://jusst.de/hg/mantis/summary. After this I got everything working fine
in my Myth, but after a few days I there appeared to be a pattern where the
whole machine just stops responding. This occurs every 12-24 hours and the
source of it is quite hard to make out because obviously theres nothing in
the logs.

I have tried with another Cinergy-card but the result is the same, it can't
be a hardware problem. I dunno if the problem is the driver of the cinergy
or perhaps the installation of mantis somehow broke the TT-card..

Help would be much appreaciated.

Here's dmeg from the box.

I'm using the EIT-info, so MythTV is doing this EITScanner quite often to
check for new channel-info, so that may be the root of the problem.

Here's a log from mythbackend.log just before the machine once again stopped
responding:
