Hmm, can you please check this: After you did "make install" could it be
that you have modules twice in your /lib/modules/xxx tree?
This would explain the version conflict when the modules get autoloaded.
Does depmod give any "strange" message?

On my system, i can load and unload the modules as i like. But:
It is a known issue that streaming must be shut down before you
can unload the modules. Could it be that you have some service running in
the background and you have the "force module remove" option set in the
kernel config?
When exactly does it crash, when you remve the modules step by step?

When we start debugging this, you should set the options debug=1 for
the modules tuner and tda827x. Then the drivers report what they try to
do with the gain.
