You have followed a link from Chris Pascoe's web site, this page is missing

How ever, you may have success with the following pages. I did. <br>

If you are using a Dvico FusionHDTV DVB-T Pro with Ubuntu 9.04 and you can not get a video lock with MythTV (no video) you may see this message when running dmesg:

xc2028 0-0061: Error: firmware xc3028-v27.fw not found

If this is the case you are missing the firmware needed for this card. Please refer to the following link:

{{Note|
* this page was missing because it was archived and replaced by the "how to obtain, build and install v4l-dvb device drivers articles ... obviously 3rd party sites still refer to this page. Consequently, to keep everyone happy, this page will be transformed into a redirect to the new article. (Though, hopefully 3rd party sites will eventually correct their links to the correct articles --- while it may appear to be a trivial issue to just keep redirects, redirects are actually not particularly desirable for some benign reasons ... amusingly, this issue itself [user friendliness by not breaking links from 3rd parties vs. the technical reasons, in regards to wiki administration, that disfavour use of redirects] created a sort of bureaucratic holy war on wikipedia/Mediawiki)
* Consequently, please do not add to this article. Instead, please add any appropriate information to the newer article [[How to Obtain, Build and Install V4L-DVB Device Drivers]]. I note, however, that the issue of missing firmware is a general issue that
** is already addressed in the article
** is agnostic of any specific distro
** is applicable to a large number of devices, such that no device specific info should be placed in the article (place such info in the device's own article, if not already covered there)}}
