For example: - the firmware_class infrastructure has been added in more than 100 drivers (as of 2.6.17) - the qla2xxx firmware has been dropped from the kernel sources, and is now shiped on ftp.qlogic.com - new drivers for devices requiring a firmware to be uploaded during initialization are included without embedded firmware (for example the ipw3945 driver, or aic94xx which has just been added in 2.6.19-rc) Best regards Frederik Schueler -- ENOSIG
