pinnacle pctv pro don't work

[fuge]

I have a Pinnacle PCTV PRO tv tuner card.

If i boot 9.10 (2.6.31-20-generic) and start tvtime, or tvtime-scanner, or scantv app, they can not find any station.
Using 9.04 (2.6.28-15-generic) it works perfectly.
If I boot 9.04 and start tvtime and reboot the 9.10 after that, the tv tuner works, can find stations.

Hello
Is this problem present with the latest updated Karmic's, Lucid's or Maverick's packages?
Thanks in advance
Fabio

Hello

Yes, my KK is up-to-date. (Current kernel: 2.6.31-22-generic)
It is not working. (I am not sure, but it seems that it is not initializing.)

I am using still my tvtuner with booting 9.04 - start tvtime - reboot - choosing 9.10 in GRUB - start tvtime, if i would like to use it. It is working only in that way.

Hi fuge,

Please be sure to confirm this issue exists with the latest development release of Ubuntu. ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily/current/ . If the issue remains, please run the following command from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal). It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report.

apport-collect -p linux 539815

Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results.

Thanks in advance.

Hello fuge
can you update to Maverick that ship the better kernel actually running.
Fabio

Hi!

Installed the Maverick today, the tuner works fine. It can find stations, can store them.
Now i will try to run apport-collect.
