Bug Description

Some DVB-T receivers look for the dvb-usb-wt220u-02.fw file in order to load successfully. This file is not currently present in Ubuntu, although it is present on the Internet, more precisely here: http://www.linuxtv.org/download/dvb/firmware/dvb-usb-wt220u-02.fw.

If it is legally possible, it should be included in Ubuntu.

Can anyone take a look at this? Adding this firmware to Ubuntu Feisty would mean support for several more pieces of hardware (even though it may not be a 100% free solution).

changed to linux-meta because it is not dependent on any kernel number.
