Bug Description
My Nova-T 500 (a dual-tuner DVB-T card popular in the U.K. and maybe elsewhere in Europe) is experiencing multiple disconnects a day in Mythbuntu 8.04 beta. This wasn't happening with the previous version. Others are experiencing the same thing, from what I can see on the Linux-dvb mailing list. The following patch to the kernel has been reported to work:
Apparently, it was a regression introduced last August that is now fixed. Any chance of getting this patch in the kernel used by mythbuntu?

Where the developers have decided to hold off applying this patch until after Hardy. May I plead here as well for a reconsideration? Without this fix, hardy is basically useless as a MythTV platform for many USB-related tuners.
