Public bug reported: Now that pcmcia-cs is deprecated, the firmware for various pcmcia devices is missing.
I got around the bug when using my compex linkport ethernet card by installing pcmcia-cs and then copying /etc/pcmcia/cis/tamarack.dat to /lib/firmware/tamarack.cis However this is somewhat of a hack :) OpenSUSE includes the firmwares in pcmciautils, not sure if it's the correct place under Ubuntu though...?
