Re: cx88 pci_abort messages

Okay, I think I'm at the end of my rope. I can _reduce_ the frequency of pci_abort messages on my FusionHDTV5 RT Gold by:

A) In BIOS, setting my DDR2 667 memory to run at DDR2 533
B) In BIOS, setting the default PCI Bus Latency to 32 instead of 64

But, I cannot eliminate them. Regardless of the bios tweaks and kernel tweaks I've tried they never go away completely. Maybe I'm expecting to much? Is it normal for the current driver to occasionally report a pci_abort? For me occasionally appears to be between 1 and 3 times every hour the tuner is busy recording.

Outside of BIOS, I have tried many many things:

1) Placed the card in two different PCI slots
2) Ensured that the card was not sharing an IRQ at the hardware level or as reported by /proc/interrupts
3) Moved from 2.6.17-r8 Gentoo kernel to the released 2.6.18 kernel
4) Verified my frontend and backend matches the loaded modules
5) Assorted kernel options including: noapic, nolapic, pci=routeirq, irqpoll, acpi=off, acpi=noirq, pci=noacpi

None of these things seem to eliminate the pci_abort errors I'm seeing. Any more clues or suggestions? See below for my dmesg, the actual error I'm seeing, and the list of dvb modules I have loaded.
