Hi Kris,
You do need to download the latest firmware. It's currently not
included in the distribution. I'm chasing license issues in the hope of
getting it included in Hardy. [0]
Further, if you want to be able to use the remote with the later
productions of the Nova-t, you do need to compile from source the latest
v4l-usb from source. The MythTV wiki covers this quite well and it's
shouldn't be that difficult (I've done it over SSH for someone). [1]

Hope this helps,
Kind Regards,
