Dear CityK: While you can download the firmware successfully, I am not that lucky. And this is the result of my sudo perl get_dvb_firmware nxt2004: """"""""""""""""""""""""""" kevin@kevin-ubuntu:~/Workdir/linux-source-2.6.22/Documentation/dvb$ sudo perl get_dvb_firmware nxt2004 --18:06:05-- http://www.aver.com/support/Drivers/AVerTVHD_MCE_A180_Drv_v1.2.2.16.zip => `AVerTVHD_MCE_A180_Drv_v1.2.2.16.zip' Resolving www.aver.com... 66.206.166.24 Connecting to www.aver.com|66.206.166.24|:80... connected.
