Until some time ago, there was not even a remote chance getting this Dual-Tuner Stick to work. When trying to tune in a
second transponder, the log got spammed with these:

[  835.412375] af9015: command failed:1
[  835.412383] mxl5005s I2C write failed

However, I applied the patches ba730b56cc9afbcb10f329c17320c9e535c43526 and 61875c55170f2cf275263b4ba77e6cc787596d9f
from Antti Palosaari. For the first time I got able to receive two Transponders at once. Sadly after a while the second
adapter stops working, showing the I2C erros above. The first adapter keeps working. Also attaching and removing the
stick does not work out very well.

First plugin attempt:

this is repeatable to me every time. Removing the stick when in warm state, leads to kernel oops every time. Kernel
Version is 3.1.2.
