TT Budget S2-1600 no frontend Ubuntu 12.04

Hi,

I can't get my TT Budget S2-1600 card to work, can anyone help?

I have an Ubuntu 12.04 x64 installed running kernel :
3.2.0-32-generic #51-Ubuntu SMP Wed Sep 26 21:33:09 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

lspci -v:

02:01.0 Multimedia controller: Philips Semiconductors SAA7146 (rev 01)
Subsystem: Technotrend Systemtechnik GmbH Device 101c
Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 9
Memory at fdcff000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable)
Kernel driver in use: budget dvb
Kernel modules: budget

dmesg | grep -i budget:

[ 28.069802] saa7146: register extension 'budget dvb'
[ 28.074591] budget dvb 0000:02:01.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 21 (level, low) -> IRQ 9

[ 28.457894] budget: A frontend driver was not found for device [1131:7146] subsystem [13c2:101c]

I have tried the following:
sudo apt-get install linux-firmware-nonfree
installing media_build from linuxtv
and s2-liplianin-v37

none of the above find a frontend.

Thanks!

I have tried this with a fresh install of Ubuntu and got the same results.

Is there a way of re loading the original firmware and i'll have another test?
