The "unable to enumerate USB device on port ..." error message usually means that
the USB hardware what you connect itself is damaged. At that time the v4l-dvb driver
is not yet started, only the low level USB enumeration is running. It is also possible
that the USB cable causes the problem, if any. I had an USB device which had wrong
soldering and that one gave the same error message. That device was degraded as time
passed.

You might want to try the device on different USB port, different USB cable, or even
on different computer to see exactly which hardware component is not working properly.
