No I've had zero problems with lockups, I use the u3100 as my highest
priority tuner and between my girlfriend and myself we record/watch about
2-3 hours of TV a day with it. Recording with the Asus and watching the
AverMedia also works fine. I'm using an Acer L460 to do the recording that
has an Intel G31 chipset running the 2.6.27-11 kernel.

I do get the occasional mythfrontend crash  - a really weird one is it won't
schedule a recording of the Sarah Silverman program, the frontend bombs out
but the backend stays up. If I do it through Mythweb it works fine, maybe
the GUI developers don't like that sort of humour!
