I've built a new master backend for MythTV and now I get the same
"1000 ms time out waiting for firmware" messages a few others
were experiencing. The first recording or watching live TV is fine
after a reboot, but ivtv seems to hang after that. The only way to
recover it is to reboot.

I'm using the ivtv packages from atrpms:

ivtv-0.7.0-117.fc5.at.x86_64.rpm
ivtv-firmware-1.8a-10.at.noarch.rpm
ivtv-kmdl-2.6.17-1.2174_FC5-0.7.0-117.fc5.at.x86_64.rpm

Mythbackend log:
