i found it is a problem with kaffeine, with other programs i can lock a
signal but reception is very very sketchy (like in unviewable).

GlovX xine-lib # dmesg |grep e4000
GlovX xine-lib # dmesg |grep FC0012
GlovX xine-lib # dmesg |grep FC0013
[ 28.281685] fc0013: Fitipower FC0013 successfully attached.
GlovX xine-lib # dmesg |grep FC2580
GlovX xine-lib # dmesg |grep TUA
GlovX xine-lib #
