Public bug reported:

Top level symptom:
mythtv-backend fails to listen for client connections.
It stops at: (strace mythbackend)
open("/dev/dvb/adapter1/frontend0", O_RDWR|O_NONBLOCK) = 16
ioctl(16, FE_GET_INFO

me-tv also hangs in a similar manner.

I expected the ioctl call to succeed, and for the top level applications
to function properly. Instead, they hang.

The machine has 3 dvb tuners as follows:
**************** Adapter 0

There appears to be a problem loading the firmware for the xc2028 in the
DViCO FusionHDTV card:

The firmware is loaded from the file xc3028-v27.fw:
Mar 13 02:07:42 mythtv kernel: [   18.108746] xc2028 11-0061: creating new

Mar 13 02:07:42 mythtv kernel: [   18.109670] dvb-usb: DViCO FusionHDTV DVB-T 
Dual Digital 4 successfully initialized and connected.

The firmware file /lib/firmware/xc3028-v27.fw belongs to the 
linux-firmware-nonfree 1.14.ubuntu1 package. I have located instructions on the 
origin of this file 
(http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Xceive_XC3028/XC2028#How_to_Obtain_the_Firmware)
and I have verified that the firmware file is identical to the one obtained by 
that method.

The DViCO FusionHDTV card has been used for several years in this
machine. This problem only occurred after upgrading to saucy salamander.
