Hi,
Have you enabled non-free? There is a "firmware-bnx2x" in non-free,
which is probably what you are looking for.

Hello Niels,
Yes, the packages firmware-bnx2x is installed:
root@box:~# dpkg -l | grep bnx
ii firmware-bnx2 0.33
Binary firmware for Broadcom NetXtremeII
ii firmware-bnx2x 0.33
Binary firmware for Broadcom NetXtreme II 10Gb
but it doesn't contain the files the 3.0.0-2-686-pae kernel is looking
for...
Kernel wants one of these:
W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/bnx2x/bnx2x-e2-6.2.9.0.fw for
module bnx2x
W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/bnx2x/bnx2x-e1h-6.2.9.0.fw
for module bnx2x
W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/bnx2x/bnx2x-e1-6.2.9.0.fw for
module bnx2x
Packages contains:
root@xen-blade13:~# dpkg -L firmware-bnx2x
/.
/lib
/lib/firmware
/lib/firmware/bnx2x-e1-4.8.53.0.fw
/lib/firmware/bnx2x
/lib/firmware/bnx2x/bnx2x-e2-6.0.34.0.fw
/lib/firmware/bnx2x/bnx2x-e1-7.0.20.0.fw
/lib/firmware/bnx2x/bnx2x-e2-7.0.20.0.fw
/lib/firmware/bnx2x/bnx2x-e1-6.0.34.0.fw
/lib/firmware/bnx2x/bnx2x-e1h-6.0.34.0.fw
/lib/firmware/bnx2x/bnx2x-e1h-7.0.20.0.fw
/lib/firmware/bnx2x-e1-5.0.21.0.fw
/lib/firmware/bnx2x-e1h-5.0.21.0.fw
/lib/firmware/bnx2x-e1h-4.8.53.0.fw
/usr
/usr/share
/usr/share/bug
/usr/share/bug/firmware-bnx2x
/usr/share/bug/firmware-bnx2x/presubj
/usr/share/doc
/usr/share/doc/firmware-bnx2x
/usr/share/doc/firmware-bnx2x/changelog.gz
/usr/share/doc/firmware-bnx2x/copyright
So it looks like to me that the packages firmware-bnx2x might be lacking
some firmwares for 3.x kernels....
