That is what I thought, but the 2.6.22-gentoo-r8 release that seems to work for me (I couldn't reproduce the issue anymore) appears to have ivtv in-kernel. Unfortunately it has been removed from the 'portage' tree, so I cannot check out on what vanilla version/patchlevel it was based. Besides that, as mentionned in my previous mail, I cannot compile these kernels anymore, since they can't be built with GCC 4.3 > The core problem is that 1) you're the first reporter of this problem, That makes me think that there's more to this problem... I simply can't imagine that I am the only person in the world running this motherboard (that was designed specifically for video-purposes) with this card (one of the most popular analog tv cards for PVR's, I think) and Linux... > 2) it doesn't happen on non-VIA PCs (at least, to my knowledge), 3) I > strongly > suspect that it might be related to the PCI bridge on the PVR-500 together > with some interaction in other parts of the kernel.

Well, it is worth *MY* time, as I simply don't want to throw out a system that should be working perfectly except for a software error. I'd be happy to try and test and figure out things, but I need some guidance on what to try and interpreting kernel messages and stuff...
