Could the second post in the thread below hold the answer?

To summarize, the OP in the thread has a related device (the Terratec Cinergy XS USB) which apparently uses the same hardware. According to the second post, there is a patch in kernel 2.6.33 that makes this work. Patch is also included in the post, but I don't know anything about applying kernel patches. If someone guides me through this I can help test it.

If it works -- and since other stuff is being pulled in from 2.6.33 too -- the patch could be backported to the Lucid kernel to allow for this tuner to function out of box.
