Howdy Hans,
I tested this release this evening and am getting the
same cpu crippling effects still for a pvr-150.
To recap, I have a dual tuner system, 350 as the main 150 as
the secondary. The 350 has no load spike with this release
when I switch tuners to the 150 I get:
top - 20:50:21 up 7 min, 3 users, load average: 14.99, 5.70, 2.17
Tasks: 107 total, 6 running, 101 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie

I did a
make
make install
/sbin/depmod -a
shutdown -h now
pull the plug
turn the power button on and off a few times to drain the capacitors
wait 5 minutes
turn back on
this times two
After watching now for about 10 minutes the load seems to have maxed out
at around 15 avg.
This is on:
uname -a
Linux pvr.webhounds.net 2.6.11-1.14_FC3 #1 Thu Apr 7 19:23:49 EDT 2005 i686
athlon i386 GNU/Linux
Happy to help with any more info I can give.
Thanks.
Scott
Oh, one good thing still, the audio is great! No tiny-ess at all
