Thanks Bastian, that explains it. Great job.

i agree to your cynicism.

if you wanna help either make copyright holder relicense blob to BSD
or the driver to use request_firmware(), see for the long story
http://wiki.debian.org/KernelFirmwareLicensing

DFSG doesn't allow such blobs in Debian main.



I wasn't being cynical. I was referring to the superb service that is being performed in providing me with the tools and a kernel patch, as well as the kernel itself, enabling me to add the ck patch to a Debian revised kernel. Thanks again.

The firmware issue is what it is and as I said, I don't use the atm module, luckily.
