Hi Mauro,
Just tried this on my card - unfortunately the patch as is doesn't work.

This Kaffeine's BZ:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=374693
affects SkyStar S2 PCI DVB-S/S2 rev 3.3 device. It could be due to
a Kernel bug.
While checking the Isil 6421, comparing with its manual, available at:
http://www.intersil.com/content/dam/Intersil/documents/isl6/isl6421a.pdf
It was noticed that, if the output load is highly capacitive, a different
approach
is recomended when energizing the LNBf.
Also, it is possible to detect if a current overload is happening, by checking
an
special flag.
Add support for it.
Compile-tested only.

Once I changed these it worked fine - I can still tune in with this
patch even switching from H to V. I've no idea if this fixes the bug
logged in kaffeine though as I haven't seen it.
Jemma.
