That's the conclusion I came to last night, the splitter dieing has
highlighted an issue with the drivers.  I'm using FC6 which has 2.6.18 as
its kernel.  

 

Once I get a replacement splitter I can live with this problem.

 

Thanks for all you help!!!!

 

It would be interesting to know if other people can reproduce this driver
problem or whether it is just me.

I removed the splitter so only one card is connected, oddly enough I get the

stop working.

 

Card 0 has a short stub cable connected to it, it isn't connected to
anything.

So it's the software. Changed kernels recently?
