Laptop failing to suspend when WinTV-HVR950 installed.

I have a 100% repeatable failure for my laptop runing Lucid 64 bit to suspend when my WinTV-HVR950 is installed, and a 100% success rate on it suspending when the device is not installed.

If I put the device in, remove the device, and suspend (e.g. by closing the lid) it will suspend. There are no processes opening the device (as confirmed by lsof | grep dvb).

Additionally, most of the time the failure to suspend occurs, the machine becomes unresponsive, and I have to hard power off to get it back.

Has anybody else seen this?

just as a hint.

You need some cloud of users, that somebody sticks in.

I still have cases, where a single user claims on the wiki, all Asus stuff is rubbish, but he still is exactly the only one failing after years.

I don't deny, that it might fail for him.

Cheers,
Hermann

To stop joking, well noticed from you.

The dvb subsystem never had any way to suspend and recover reliable.
