If the stick was first connected to Ubuntu 11.04 (where it works) and then attached to Ubuntu 11.10 I get a different dmesg output from Ubuntu 11.10.

But nevertheless it doesn't work.

What makes me uncertain that linux (or v4l) is the culprit...

1. the stick worked on a ubuntu 11.0 daily release from 08.10.2011 and I informed Sebastian Pölsterl (developer of the Gnome DVB-Daemon, https://launchpad.net/gnome-dvb-daemon) that the dvb-daemon 0.24 works great in Ubuntu 11.10

2. after some release upgrades (but no kernel-upgrade) it refused to work. My guess is it has to to with udev (but it's only a guess)

3. pulling latest v4l from git and installing it doesn't bring the stick alive (maybe I should try again with a 'clean' stick first attached on ubuntu 11.04)

dmesg from ubuntu 11.10 (with stick attached on ubuntu 11.04 before)
