Bug Description

Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.20-14-generic

Although kernel finds and registers the frontend:

:~$ dmesg | grep DVB
[ 41.070780] DVB: registering new adapter (Terratec Cinergy 1200 DVB-T).
[ 41.703891] DVB: registering frontend 0 (Philips TDA10046H DVB-T)...

the device stopped working with kernel 2.6.20-13, still true with -14.

It's an older PCI card for terrestrial DVB which needs v4l ver.1. support. Silently dropped this in -13?

Worked without further configuration in dapper and edgy after firmware was put into place.

So with the -15 kernel the problem with *vlc* still persists, but after getting some advice on IRC a test with mplayer / xixne showed, that the card is indded working.
So the bug should be filed for vlc
