[Alberto Mardegan <1507976@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I spent some time debugging the issue, and eventually wrote a kernel patch which adds support for this card:
http://git.linuxtv.org/cgit.cgi/media_tree.git/commit/?id=8c47311d34eccedb06bc60fc9435a53bd4aff392

The patch has been accepted into the linuxtv git project, and will
eventually make its way into Linus's kernel. I'll mark this as fixed
upstream once the patch gets actually there.

Title:
  DVB-T device Terratec Cinergy T XS not working

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  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:
