| Some DVB cards require firmware that is downloaded by a perl script get_dvb_firmware. Is is located in Documentation/dvb/get_dvb_firmware in the kernel sources. It would be nice to deliver this with sidux (and made executable, of course), so that one does not have to downoad all kernel sources just to get the firmware. |

I have a script that downloads the latest firmware then decompresses it to /lib/firmware directory.
This works for me fine.
Script :-
#!/bin/bash
# get latest dvb firmware
cd /lib/firmware
wget -Nc http://www.linuxtv.org/downloads/firmwa ... -1.tar.bz2
tar -jxvf dvb-firmwares-1.tar.bz2 ./
rm dvb-firmwares-1.tar.bz2
cp ./*.fw /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware |

Some time ago I found a script to get dvb but I haven't tried it yet and I don't know if it works...
You may try it... BUT...
Warning. The script is not mine and I haven't checked it. So, use it at your own risk (read it before you run). |
