Agreed. I don't update my main myth boxes but this particular machine doubles as a computer in the office - it is set to grab security/bug related updates only. I'm not sure why the updated drivers qualified as such, nor even why they were considered stable by the repository owner on the same day as they
were released.

A little OT for the devel list, but I did want to warn people with AMD Athlon X2's on a nForce4 chipset (I think Isaac has one). I just bumped my kernel from 2.6.13 to 2.6.14 and everything went bad. Video speed was all over the place, with audio going crazy trying to match it. Turns out the clock would start running 2-3 times normal speed when both procs were under load. I resolved it by adding "notsc clock=pmtmr" to my kernel boot line in grub. notsc alone should have worked, but my kernel disallowed that option.
