Issues like this should always be discussed on the linux-media mailing
list, so please CC it in the future.
Neither I'm the em28xx maintainer nor do I know much about issues/things
that happened in the past.

What does "no longer handled" mean ?
What was the last kernel that supported this device ?

Yes, according to http://linux.terratec.de/tv_en.html it uses em2882+xc5000.

I never heard of a second driver.

I don't know. The em28xx driver is generally the right driver and it
already supports other devices with the xc5000 tuner.
If support for this device has really been removed a while ago, then
there must have been good reasons...

Mauro, Devin ?
