Well, I sorta broke my never build an -rc1 rule.

It seems to be stable so far, but I have a cx88 based video card, a
pcHDTV-3000, and there's 2 problems with the audio. That dma function
was turned off in the .config as the lspci -n didn't report the right
numbers.

1. tvtimes volume control has no effect, in kamix, its now the 'front'
slider. Its actually plugged into the line in jack of a SBLive Audigy
2 Value card.

2. The audio has a definite 'dragging voice coil' sound, very tiresome
to listen to, highly clipped regardless of the gain settings.

Since I do watch tv on this box, I'll go back to 2.6.15.1 until -rc2 is
released.
