# cd /[kernel source directory]/Documentation/dvb/
# perl get_dvb_firmware or5132

Whatever method you choose (you'll get the same files regardless), once the download from the source is complete, place a copy of the firmware files in your /lib/firmware directory. (This directory may differ with some distros; consult your distro's documentation for the appropriate location).
