I have exactly the same behavior with my Viaccess Redline
(1.0 V481,Application V1.05.001, P/N: 902532 ) here in Sweden.

I understand that this is probably a firmware issue? Could it also be
a driver issue (available for someone like me to have a go at it)?

What's the drawback of using this driver compared to the current cvs
one? Any major things that will be lost?
