And it's a probably a driver problem. Already on the kernel buglist
as #505252....

That's the firmware you want to have. See the Homaepage. It says
you want 4.150.10.5 for >= 2.6.25, and 2.6.28 is >= 2.6.25.

Don't file bugs against s simple tool whose purpose is just to extract
the firmware files from binary files but against the actual *driver*
if there's a driver problem 8and that's be the kernel.). Can this be so hard?
