I'll try that again - they're grouching, because their TV is fine, and
the same card in a Windows PC is also fine. It's just under Linux that

Am I misunderstanding dmesg here? I see references to a Samsung S5H1409,
not to an mxl5005s; if I've read the driver code correctly, I'd see a
KERN_INFO printk for the mxl5005s when it comes up.
