PVR-350 decoder freezing on CentOS 5.3
A couple of months ago I moved from Fedora 8 to CentOS 5. Since the
move I have had occasional freezing of the PVR-350 decoder on MythTV.
I'm running the xdriver, so after the freeze, I need to reboot the
machine to get X working again. The obvious steps seem to have been
taken, and I'm at a loss as to how to continue troubleshooting. Any
advice would be appreciated.

The hardware:

P4 2.8Ghz
1.2GB RAM
25GB system disk
320Gb recordings disk

Disabled the cpuspeed daemon:

cpuspeed 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off

Disabled hyperthreading:

kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-128.7.1.el5 ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet noht
