hmm, current mercurial is not broken for DVB-T on the 2.6.29.1.
So we would have to find out if mercurial was ever bad.
Your on the 2.6.29 missing i2c gate control fixes made no difference too
porting them to 2.6.29.1. I was thinking about to test next if it is
already broken on the rc1 to come closer to it.

I have quite some cards and never had problems with that.
The tuner status read out is also the same on the broken 2.6.29 and on
working mercurial v4l-dvb and quirks are still enabled.
Unfortunately I can't promise any time soon for excessive bisecting,
but I'll try to check if it is already on 29-rc1.
BTW, someone must disable the IR on the VIDEOMATE_T750 or add the
missing. People can't even boot up it seems. Must go to stable too.
Cheers,
Hermann
