DVB-USB Firmware will not load. [Solved]

[DeadlyWolf]

My laptop has a YUANRD STK7700D DVB Tuner installed (not a removable stick type) and I want to set the laptop up as a PVR using mythTV or xbmc, but the firmware is not loading. I am using Sabayon 8 KDE 64 bit.

The firmware is in /lib64/firmware (by default) any ideas as to what I may be able to do to get it to load ?
