I spent a large part of the last couple of weeks watching the tennis by streaming MPEG from DVB-S out over my local network with a sky2 card. I didn't have a single lockup from the sky2. In fact, I'm listening to the radio the same way now, because I haven't bothered moving the satellite cable back to the standalone receiver box.
This is with the current Fedora (2.6.17) kernel, which I believe has no patches to the sky2 driver.

I've usign a traffic generator over these cards and they hang before
