Same as me.

This is a Gentoo box.

It seems to work fine for me - the only issue I have is that the card 
silently drops the signal if the reception isn't great.

I have dvb-usb-cxusb in my "module autoload" scripts, that seems to pull 
in all the required modules.

I wonder whether this is related to your problem?  lsmod lists 
tuner_xc2028 loaded, as this is the tuner on the card (see my kernel's 
messages below.)  By removing that module you may have tricked the 
kernel into thinking the module is loaded and ready when it's not, hence 
the crash.

Maybe you could get around it my manually inserting that module first, 
before anything else?

Same as me.
