I'm seeing some unusual kernel oops when I try to remove the pvrusb2
driver with lirc_dev & lirc_i2c loaded (or the lircd init service
engaged).  The oops seemed to quiet down since I've been removing the
lirc modules, but then again, I have tried removing/loading the pvrusb2
driver more the three times in a row.

The HVR-1950 board revision/letterings with this new chip are:

75111 LF
REV C3E9


Any tips on how to initialize the FM radio?  (Although, granted, it
might be more fruitful to spend time on the digital radio spectrum
instead of analog h/w.)
