My questions are about firmware for USB DVB tuners, in particular the
DigiTV one.

Question One.

Where is the firmeware supposed to go?

Question Two.

Why is this such a state secret? No one ever mentions this topic. Is it
some kind of race memory? Am I supposed to be pick it up via ESP? lol

I am using Debian Etch. If my tuner is in the warm state (after running
Windows) then Linux picks it up and I can watch and record TV using
Klear, Kaffeine, Gxine, etc.

If I cold boot straight into Linux - the device is not recognised and I
can do nothing.

what do your log files show up ?
maybe:
try using udevmonitor in one console
- plug in your usb device
- maybe, reload the module
- let it running and start your tv application and see what's up than.
I have placed the firmware file into /lib/firmware but it makes no
difference.
just running fedora, then this path is correct.
