I have serious trouble using the mantis driver from http://jusst.de/hg/mantis.
After loading the driver and using it in conjunction with VDR, the PC freeze after a while (10min to 6h).
"Freeze" in this case means, that the PC does not react on any action (using the remote, keyboard, ping or anything else) but the TV-Livesignal and sound are still on the TV!
Just before this "freeze" happend, I recognized many "mantis start/stop feed & dma" in dmesg.

Some Information about the system:
Linux myserver 2.6.24.7 #1 SMP Tue Jul 8 16:40:13 CEST 2008
One AMD x86_64 1000MHz processor, 2010.54 total bogomips, 511M RAM
System library 2.7.0
lspci -vs 01:07.0

What's wrong?
Do I have to use a different kernel version?
Are there any preconditions to take in account?
Thanks for your help
