Hi all,

Last night I upgraded my system to bleeding via apt-get to get a
little preview of what's to come from the next release.  Now my myth
system is very unstable.  The first thing I did was downgrade ivtv and
the problems still persist, leading me to believe that it is a
problkem with the cvs version.  I am looking to see how to painlessly
downgrade.  I have tried apt-get install mythtv-suite=0.17 and it said
I had the latest package, so I don't think that is the trick.  I know,
this is not the best way to maintain a system and keep it stable, but
just hoping someone may have a hand for me.

BTW, this is what I get in my /var/log/messages when the picture
freezes on my frontend (it is a combined BE/FE)
