As taykun345 said, probably that stick will not work on the et9000. I have 2 em28xx sticks and tried all the available images with no success. At best, the sticks are recognized, the driver loads correctly and you can start a channel scan, but no channel is found. If you load a channel list tuned with a working stick, the em28xx will not be able to tune any channel anyway.
One of the 2 em28xx-dvb sticks I tried is a Terratec Cinergy Hybrid T USB XS, which is based on the Empiatech EM2880 USB bridge and the Xceive XC3028 demodulator as yours. Maybe the only difference is in the demodulator (my stick as a Zarlink ZL10353).
Anyway, try for yourself and see what you get.
By the way, if you want to use the em28xx-dvb driver in the new OpenPli 2.1 based on the 2.6.31 kernel you have to patch the current driver:
remove the reference to em28xx-register-i2c-ir in line 564 of file em28xx-i2c.c
(all the "-" should be underscores) and recompile the driver.
This is causing a "missing symbol" error when you modprobe the driver (this only affects kernel 2.6.31). Of course, this will not fix the main problem of the driver (it cannot tune any channel) but will make you able to load it.
Anyway, this problem tells you that nobody is using any em28xx board on OpenPli 2.1 with an et9000 ;-)
