Comment 8 for bug 204857

I'm experiencing the same problem with a DVB-T card on hardy. The fix for it apparently is one-line, in one file:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.24.y.git;a=commit;h=5475187c2752adcc6d789592b5f68c81c39e5a81

Without this patch, my tuner card (a Hauppauge Nova-T 500 dual tuner) disconnects multiple times a day, making Hardy Heron all but useless as a MythTV platform. Can we please revisit the decision to push this patch off to the next version?
