No sign there of a  dvb-demod-si2168-b40-01.fw  load, so I think I ought 
to be surprised that the adapter has been registered;  but it looked to 
you as if it was scanning - and probably registered - except that it 
didn't find anything.

Andre's 12:14 post suggested getting the firmware packages from *buntu, 
and I think that and a reboot is probably the way to go.  But I'm not on 
*buntu just now and haven't looked to see what you'll get.
