Hello,

I did test the package from precise-proposed && raring upstream. "linux-firmware-nonfree" does contain the correct file "ngene_18.fw" for all effected Micronas based devices using DVB kernel module "ngene.ko". After installation each individual should see this in dmesg/kern.log:

----------
[ 4.037005] ngene: Found Digital Devices DuoFlex PCIe or miniPCIe
[ 4.040455] ngene: Device version 1
[ 4.041498] ngene: Loading firmware file ngene_18.fw.
----------

This firmware file is stable and used since end of 2010, start 2011 in our VDR environments.

Regards
