Comment 0 for bug 366606

My Nebula DigiTV PCI card does not work following an upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04. It worked fine under 8.10.

When running xine dvb://, the application freezes and the following appears in /var/log/messages:

kernel: [ 4265.603605] DVB: adapter 0 frontend 0 frequency limits undefined - fix the driver
kernel: [ 4265.604009] DVB: adapter 0 frontend 0 frequency limits undefined - fix the driver

Edited output of sudo lspci -v:
