I'm on 2.4.20-31_38 RH9 and looks like I'm using 1.0.5a. I'm not on the
latest CVS but from a little while back around when the last patch for
this was comitted. I'm starting to wonder if maybe the new a/v sync
code might have affected this so I'll probably upgrade to CVS soon once
I finish the status stuff I'm working on.
