Here we have it: When trying to identify the mt352 (0x7f) it gets 0x8a 
(whereas 0x13 is expected). Same for nxt6000: 0x0b expected, 0x8a 
delivered.

So either you have a new very new device with an unkown demod inside, or 
your box is broken :). Does it work in windows?

You are right. insmod.sh does not care about any options in /etc/.

Where is the "Unable to handle kernel paging request" from your subject?
