Hi Bart,

I've got the same card running under OpenSuse 11.4 and Mythtv 0.24.1

I also have the same warning message, but somehow, when Mythtv grabs the
device, the CAM will be reset successfully (at least, in my case).

In the past, I solved this annoyance by adding a sleep in the CAM init
code [1] relevant to the S2-3200 until I found out Mythtv does something
about it.

[1] drivers/media/dvb/dvb-core/dvb_ca_en50221.c in function
dvb_ca_en50221_thread(void) add a sleep of 5 or 10 secs between the 1st
dprintk and the main loop.

Hope this helps,
