Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.32-12-generic
Update-manager run Feb 10 had a problem with updating the kernel to 32-12.
A window claimed that dpkg --configure -a would be run, but that failed too.
Manual run below.
Wrong file name for firmware.sh appears to be the problem. Prevents the
dpkg --configure -a from running too.
$ sudo dpkg --configure -a

The file /lib/udev/firmware does exist, maybe that is the one to be used?
