I'm on the 0.23.1-fixes....with the 20100517 drivers as well. I did have problems getting Ubuntu 10.04 working with this, but the frustrating thing is I DID get it working - albeit too briefly! I'll keep playing about and trying things, but if anyone's got any more ideas of things to try please let me know....
in the interim I'll have to be more careful with my channel hopping.
