Bug Description

The current Karmic kernel can not load the firmware onto the "MSI Digi Vox mini2" USB DVB-T stick which has the Afatech af9015 chipset. When the stick is attached, the kernel dumps a stack trace, see the attached dmesg.log starting from line 752. The stick works without a problem in Jaunty. The linux-firmware package is installed.
If you require any further information, just ask for it - I will try to povide it.

Can you try replacing the file in /lib/firmware/ with the one from http://launchpadlibrarian.net/28772703/dvb-usb-af9015.fw and see if that helps?
