Re: ivtv-users Digest, Vol 70, Issue 12
tryed the Levente's solution ....

added non-free repositories to sources.list
vi /etc/apt/sources.list

added lines:
#non free
deb http://ftp.it.debian.org/debian/ squeeze non-free
deb-src http://ftp.it.debian.org/debian/ squeeze non-free

refreshed the cache with:
apt-get update

and installed firmware with:
apt-get install firmware-ivtv

now pvr350player goes without errors (i suppose ... do not have TV linked to
the board now ;-) )

Thnx

PS: now i try to figure out doubled compressed files in ivtv site for
curiosity :D
