My WinTV-HVR-1120 works if I delete dvb-fe-tda10048-1.0.fw and 
rename dvb-fe-tda10046.fw in dvb-fe-tda10048-1.0.fw
(see cf "Hauppauge  WinTV-HVR-1120 on Unbuntu 10.04" thread).
After reboot my WinTV-HVR-1120 works. Ubuntu recognizes that the firmware isn't 
correct and doesn't load the firmware.
But I know that isn't a good practice.
