Tried that patch on 3.5.3. No improvement, unfortunately.
I have to retract that. It turns out that there is some strange interaction
between the cabletv box and the card. When I rebooted into 'my' patch
I still got the noisy signal. I then power cycled the cabletv box, and
voila,
I got a good signal on my own patch. Wondering what I had actually tested
with your patch, I tested it again, and indeed it works!
So, 1) you're on to something, that's for sure, and 2) there is
_something_ in
the cabletv box which can make all this fall into a bad state too.
Cheers,
