Wouldn't this be (C)ommon (I)nterface?

Well, I can only speak for myself, and this is the first time I actually
got a CI with a CiMAX 2.0 to test this here.

So, can you confirm that CiMAX 1.0 works, but CiMAX 2.0 doesn't?
From the other messages (and my own tests) so far it looks like the board
revision (1.3 or 1.4) doesn't matter. Only the CiMAX 2.0 is the problem.
