I'm convinced it's a combination of the new card and the "current" ivtv drivers/kernel required to support it. More specifically, I think (not being qualified to safe for sure, but) it's the X ivtvdev driver / ivtv-fb module. The recording and payback of shows is nearly rock solid, but when any OSD or X related activity takes place, it locks up under some certain circumstance. I just don't want to upgrade my motherboard/cpu/mem if it is in fact an existing hardware (pvr-350) or software (ivtv?) problem. -Kenneth
