just an update for all and sundry. I did a clean install of karmic and plugged in my leadtek gold usb tuner purchased ~3 weeks ago It loads 4.65 firmware and works out of the box but has the polling issue with the remote. I then removed and plugged into a windows pc and installed the 4.95 firmware on my karmic install. I plugged it into karmic and it loaded the 4.95 firmware. It would lock on channels but would take up to 2 minutes to lock. The polling issue was not present. So If you want a cheap tuner in Aus these are great for a mythtv backend where the remote isnt required. All you need do is this: echo "options dvb-usb-af9015 remote=-1" > /etc/modprobe.d/no-af9015-remote.conf which will disable the polling and you have a cheap dvb tuner that works great.
