The grundig_29504-401 driver in 1.0.0-pre3 had some gross
bugs, but they were corrected in 1.0.1. Could you copy
grundig_29504-401.c from 1.0.0-pre2 into 1.0.1 and rebuild?

Does the 1.0.1 driver work for you then? If yes, my guess is
that for some reason the simpler and slightly incorrect
version of tsa5060_set_tv_freq() in 1.0.0-pre3 works better
for you. Could you copy the code in tsa5060_set_tv_freq()
from 1.0.0-pre3 into the driver in Linux 2.6.2 and see
if that works?

Please report your findings.

Johannes
