I recall a problem Brandon Jenkins had from last year, that when I2C was
enabled in hdpvr, his machine with multiple HVR-1600s and an HD-PVR
would produce a kernel oops.

Have you tested this on a machine with both an HVR-1600 and HD-PVR
installed?

Hrm, no, haven't tested it with such a setup, don't have an HVR-1600. I do have an HVR-1250 that I think might suffice for testing though, if
I'm thinking clearly.

Hrm. A brief google search suggests the 1250 IR part isn't enabled. I
see a number of i2c devices in i2cdetect -l output, but none that say
anything about IR... I could just plug the hdpvr in there and see what
happens, I suppose...

You should try that. It was an issue of legacy I2C driver probing that
caused the hdpvr module to have problems.  The cx18 driver simply
stimulated the i2c subsystem to do legacy probing (via the tuner modules
IIRC)?  See the email I sent you.

So from what I can tell, the i2c changes in 2.6.31 *should* prevent that from happening, and now that I've got everything working on 2.6.31 too, I'll try hooking up my hdpvr to my box w/an hvr-1250, hvr-1800 and pchdtv hd-3000 in it and see what blows up (hopefully nothing...).
