The code was committed early in the month (March 8, IIRC). Ubuntu is in kernel freeze for the next release, so it's possible it just didn't make the cutoff. > > > > see this post: > > https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/209603 > > I hope this solves the problem others seem to be plagued with, but I'm puzzled > as to why it's so stable here > > Andy There seems to be a couple of common factors in the problem reports -- marginal or poor signal and using active EIT to get the programme guide. My signal hovers around 52-64 percent, with a booster. I think my antenna need replacing. My disconnects reduced quite a bit when I turned off the Active EIT setting, although i still get disconnected frequently.
