I also just received the following response to a bug report I submitted 
through ubuntu which looks promising and relevant:

I'm experiencing the same problem with a DVB-T card on hardy. The fix
for it apparently is one-line, in one file:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.24.y.git;a=commit;h=5475187c2752adcc6d789592b5f68c81c39e5a81

Without this patch, my tuner card (a Hauppauge Nova-T 500 dual tuner)
disconnects multiple times a day, making Hardy Heron all but useless as
a MythTV platform. Can we please revisit the decision to push this patch
off to the next version?
