Sorry, this is consistent with my last response - you power cycled the 
device so now the driver attempted to load the microcontroller firmware 
first, and failed.  That last message is admittedly misleading; the key 
message here is the part where it failed to load the file "pvrusb2.f1".

Probably the driver could use some work here to make it far more clear 
what is happening at this point.  You're not the first to get misled by 
that last message :-(
