Bad firmware with USB-6008 on lsdaq

Hi,

I have already post this request on the french forum

I have a problem to use my USB-6008 on linux. I use Mandriva One 2007 ( 2007.0 )
I installed NIKAL16, NI-VISA-4.2.0 & nidaqmxbase-2.1.0. Installation looks fine.

When I run lsdaq, I have this message :
[francois@localhost National Instrument]$ lsdaq
--------------------------------
Detecting National Instruments DAQ Devices
Found the following DAQ Devices:

NI-DAQmx Base has found a device with incompatible firmware.  You may need to reload the firmware on a machine with NI-DAQmx installed for the following device:

NI USB-6008
Serial Number: 012F42CB
--------------------------------

I have not installed NI-DAQmx on my computer so this link is not sutable http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/A3C7200E881696FA862570AD0050E8D0.

I have follow the procedure to switch firmware with a windows computer ( http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/64BA7A1D64D3D5518625726D0066A780 ). First with Vista and daqmx 3, secondly on XP with daqmx base 2.1 without any change.

Here is the result of some fonctions :
