Thanks for the answer so far.
I actually updated the media modules from git but this didn't help. 
Messing around with the kernel is nothing I feel very comfortable with, 
yet. ;-)
But if I understand the linked discussion correctly it wouldn't help 
anyway. According to that the tuner is the problem and there is no 
solution at the moment. What I do not understand is, why did it work 
with the older kernel and the Ambrosa driver? Does it include a 
different driver for the e4000?

Best
Torsten
