[mythtv-users] mythtvsetup can't see dvb cards after kernel update

Hi: I'm running 0.24.3 from ATrpms with kernel 3.3.3-1,fc16.x86_64.
During a brief upgrade to kernel 3.4.2-1 I had a failure in simultaneous
recordings and various frontend hangups. I wondered if my dvb cards had
become out of order and ran mythtvsetup. It 'could not get card info',
reporting FE_GET_INFO ioctl failed, /dev/dvb/adapter3/frontend0, eno no
such device. dmesg | grep adapter showed all the cards had been
registered, and in the expected order.
I have reverted to kernel 3.3.3-1 and all seems ok again.
I suppose the mythtvsetup failure looks as if could be a permissions
problem. Suggestions? I'd like to try a later build of 0.25-fixes than
the one I now have on the laptop before updating this box.
