draw your own conclusions.


OK, I will wait for the change in the kernel.

and
3) if xawtv is able to crash kernel, kernel needs fixing.


It is strange, but manipulation with the channel list (longer then 15 items) in XAWTV made not only solide lock of the kernel, but also sometimes only crash of the USB driver or PS2 keyboard driver. I think there is (was - not with your patch?) something wrong in the kernel. Maybe some memory problem.
