Hi Joe and thanks for your email. I had not used this TV tuner on my desktop computer with an earlier version of OS.
I had used the tuner (as stated earlier) on my laptop which used Ubuntu 16.04 and that was successful. So tuner OK. At this point I am reluctant to venture to use the upstream kernel (my lack of skills etc). However what I did do was install Ubuntu 16.04 (linux 4.4.0-78-generic) as a VM on my desktop. I have included the pertinent "dmesg" output below. To my way of thinking, processing got beyond the issue I raised (Unknown symbols) and the TV Tuner was identified. There is another issue present "[ 101.325099] dvb-usb: could not restart the USB controller CPU." but I would be thinking that it is related to the VM setup. Perhaps,because the host OS is not doing what it should do for the USB TV Tuner, the guest OS stumbles). Subsequent to testing on VM, I checked the TV Tuner on the laptop and it is functioning A OK. Would you consider that this is sufficient to indicate that there was a kernel bug?
