Title:
Firmware af9005.fw not available in Ubuntu
Status in “linux-firmware-nonfree” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Some DVB-T USB sticks such as the Terratec Cinergy T USB XE need the
firmware af9005.fw to run. This firmware is available, but not
provided with Ubuntu.
The firmware is available e.g. at this site:
http://ventoso.org/luca/af9005/ . It should be part of Ubuntu. In
case it is proprietary it should at least be made available via the
hardware-drivers manager (jockey-kde or jockey-gtk).
I used the stick mentioned above on Kubuntu-Hardy desktop, Ubuntu-
Intrepid laptop, and Ubuntu-Intrepid netbook (Acer Aspire One)
successfully. Among the two firmware files available for download, the
second one (http://ventoso.org/luca/af9005/af9005.fw-6.11.23.01) is
preferred; it works as good or better as the first
(http://ventoso.org/luca/af9005/af9005.fw) in my settings.
