.............................

so Analog TV (using tvtime) and FM radio (using Kradio) are absolutely OK.

But in order to run Digital TV (DVB-T) it is necessary to load the 
firmware (dvb-fe-tda10046.fw)
So I got that firmware (release 29) and copied it in  /lib/firmware.
After a worm reboot the firmware was recognized and the DVB-T TV was OK 
using Kaffeine.
But here comes the problem.

After a shutdown of the computer on the next cold boot the system wont 
load the normal grafic screen (X mode) giving the following message:

Loading, please wait
kinit: name_to_dev_t(/dev/disk/by-UUID/-number of my swap partition-) = 
sda6(8,6)
kinit: trying to resumefrom /dev/disk/by-UUID/-number of my swap partition-
kinit: no resume image, doing normal boot....
Ubuntu 7.10 -my hostname- tty1
-my_hostname- login

So I can login in text mode or, typing ctrl-alt-canc, the system reboot 
normally in X mode and DVB-T is Ok.

After a long search trying to solve the problem I discovered that 
removing the firmware from /lib/firmware
the system boots normally....but obviously no DVB-T TV.

The system behaviour is the same copying the firmware in 
/lib/firmware/2.6.22-14-generic

Do I have to do something different to tell the system to load the 
firmware or
is it a system bug?

Thanks a lot for any help
