Out of curiosity, are you running an older 2.6.30 kernel intentionally
instead of Karmic's 2.6.31?

Yes. This is about the 2nd or third Ubuntu release in which I have not
been able to use the current kernel due to instability that Ubuntu
refuses to fix and gives the standard "fixed in next release" line. Of
course, next release comes and it's just a trade of old bugs fixed for
new bugs introduced.

FWIW, this time it's bug 459265.

Fixed in 2.6.31.6, apparently, which should land in karmic-proposed
shortly. If you need debs, I can give you a link to Stefan's build of
2.6.31-16.51-generic (containing 2.6.31.6 mostly).

Sponsored into Karmic; but still needs to go into pkg-multimedia's git.

Preliminary ACK from MOTU-SRU for that patch for a Karmic SRU.
