There is one where vbi data accidentally gets into the mpeg but this is fixed in the new driver in svn trunk. Another is where sliced vbi is used and using a non default (scaling) resolution. The last one is not fixed AFAIK. > I heard some other people talk about high CPU usage as well running gentoo > and non SMP kernels. 2.6.19-r4 (I need that or above for a promise IDE > patch).

I had it working fine in gentoo with kernel 2.6.18 and xorg 7.1. I don't use the PVR-350 anymore so I can't check for you if 2.6.19 + Xorg 7.2 is not working.
