In the future, please don't dropp cc from the mailing list.
Steve,
Chaogui's patch fixed Tim's XC5000 initialization problem -- we should
merge it if all is well with it.
Please see below.

That patch seems to have made the card stable on my system now. I have my fingers crossed. Thanks! I can't tell you guys how much I appreciate the help with this.
Where my other cards, the ATI HDTV Wonder and the Kworld 110 ATSC can barely pick up anything over the air, even with a good antenna, the Pinnacle 800i picks up pretty much everything using an antenna I made from 6 coat hangers and a 2x4! (and it's not even amplified, no pre-amp, nothing) Amazing!
