[Bug 1507976] [NEW] DVB-T device Terratec Cinergy T XS not working

 

Public bug reported:

This bug is essentially the same as bug 460636, which was closed some
years ago because the reporter's device got corrupted.

I happen to have the same device, and it doesn't work in 14.04 or 15.10.
The kernel logs are the same:

============

While there are no explicit errors, no /dev/dvb* files are created.

I found this old mail thread which hints that the card is not supported,
but it might be in case someone gets to hack the driver a bit:
