[linux-dvb] somebody messed something on xc2028 code?

[Albert Comerma]

Hi all, I just updated my ubuntu to karmic and found with surprise that 
with 2.6.31 kernel my device does not work... It seems to be related to 
the xc2028 code part since the kernel explosion happens when you try to 
tune the device, here it's my dmesg, any idea?
