Hello, I've been using this device under Linux since April with no problems at all. Now it stopped working „overnight“. Please help me find out whether this is my mistake, a hardware failure or a bug in the driver. Kernel: 2.6.27.1 (vanilla)af9015: af9015-ccb3736e43ba (the current one) The dmesg output is interesting. This one is from yesterday when it worked: Oct 20 22:32:07 xandrej usb 4-2.4: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 12 Oct 20 22:32:07 xandrej usb 4-2.4: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice Oct 20 22:32:07 xandrej dvb-usb: found a 'Afatech AF9015 DVB-T USB2.0 stick' in cold state, will try to load a firmware Oct 20 22:32:07 xandrej firmware: requesting dvb-usb-af9015.fw Oct 20 22:32:07 xandrej dvb-usb: downloading firmware from file 'dvb-usb-af9015.fw' Oct 20 22:32:07 xandrej usb 4-2.4: USB disconnect, address 12 Oct 20 22:32:07 xandrej dvb-usb: generic DVB-USB module successfully deinitialized and disconnected.

Presumably, loading it manually does not help. (No output is produced.) This seems *inexplicable* to me. I am the only user of this computer. There were no kernel updates between the two sessions. Everything remained unchanged, as far as software is concerned. However, my device is simly dead now and Kaffeine does not find it any more. Any piece of advice would be welcome.
