Was 0.17, now 0.20. No problems with either.

Stable. Doesn't crash while recording DVB-S. I have front-end crashes
more often than backend ones.

It's a Debian Sarge box running a custom kernel, built 0.20 from source.
Card is a TechnoTrend S-1500 with CAM slot. But I have had no problems
on 0.17 with the SkyStar2.
