I am sorry to disappoint you but I guess we are talking about different 
problems here. This thread is mainly about problems with concurrent access to 
a ci/cam attached to a budget card. And since you are using dvb-t which afaik 
is always fta, you are experiencing a totally different problem. Besides my 
machine never locked up, the cam just stopped decrypting. Otherwise it would 
really have been quite strange to explain. :-)

Have you run some tests on the machine like a memtest and/or processor test? 
Faulty memory can causes all sorts of strange problems. If you still suspect 
the dvb subsystem, compile a kernel without it, test and stress it. If it 
works reliably for a longer period of time, you've possibly narrowed the list 
of suspects down. But I bet it's more like a hardware problem... sorry.

So long,
matthias.
