Thanks for your tests. Please try also to load first tuner, and then cx88.

I'll wait for one or two days for more people to test. Then, I'll send to
mainstream, together with saa7134 fix for the same issue.

After mainstream merge, we'll send for 2.6.25. I think this should also be sent
to 2.6.24, since the same bug is present on older versions, if tuner is loaded
before cx88 or saa7134.

Btw, I've just added the corresponding saa7134 patch.

Hermann,

Could you test it please?

Cheers,
Mauro
