[pvrusb2] WinTV-HVR-1950 can't load firmware in Ubuntu 10.04

[JE Geiger]

I don't have my USB with Ubuntu 10.04 handy, but I do know that the most
recent kernel 2.6.34 requires the most recent version of pvrusb2 from Mike's
website.

 http://www.isely.net/pvrusb2/history.html#pvrusb2-mci-20100425

The patches in this version have not migrated up to the current kernel in
tree version. 

I was having problems with the in tree driver.  All my issues were fixed
when I installed this April 25, 2010, updated driver.

Be sure to remove the old .ko file when installing this new .ko driver.

I have a WinTV-HVR-1950 that was working perfectly in an Ubuntu version
maybe 3 OS upgrades ago. I quit using the 1950, with MythTV, for awhile so
I'm not sure when it quit working. I just upgraded to OS
10.04 and am trying to get the 1950 working again. I looked through maybe 25
pages of the mail list search and didn't see what I need, sorry if my
glazed-over eyes missed it.
