Well, I've had software that wasn't very stable on linux, I've had
software that brought linux to a crawl, software that consistently

freezes linux - Myth. The box is a combo FE/BE and isn't lacking for
resources (AMD64 3800+, 1G RAM, 750G SATA, 20G IDE for OS, PVR-350 for
encoding, nVidia 6600 GT for tv-out) and was actually running like a
champ (recording one show, flagging another while we decoded flac to
different players) with no hiccups (maybe 40-50% CPU usage) until just
recently. I added a new sound card (Turtle Beach Riviera) so I could
get optical spdif and the setup was about as simple as they come. However, now I'm having issues with myth freezing the box. The box is
not under load - running around 5-15% - but pausing, rewinding ffwding
all have the ability to freeze the box (though more often its rw/ff). Someone please tell me that there is an explanation for why this is
happening. How is myth taking down this box?


Gee, you added new hardware now the box is unstable! Yet this is the fault of MythTV, which was by your own admission was working w/o issue prior to the new hardware. See the problem here?
