Bug#488265: linux-image-2.6-amd64-etchnhalf: Problem using bnx2 module



Hello,
I have already installed  the firmware-bnx2 package

dpkg -l |grep bnx
ii  firmware-bnx2                        0.11~bpo40+1                             Binary firmware 
for Broadcom NetXtremeII

dpkg -l | grep linux-image-2.6-amd64-etchnhalf
ii  linux-image-2.6-amd64-etchnhalf      2.6.24+13~etchnhalf.1                    Linux 
2.6-etchnhalf image on AM

but on kernel boot i can still see:

bnx2: Can't load firmware file bnx2-06-4.0.5.fw

Is it supposed to get these files from /lib/firmware?

As you can see there are at this dir.

ls -l /lib/firmware/
total 216
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 106116 Jun  5 11:29 bnx2-06-4.0.5.fw
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 102844 Jun  5 11:29 bnx2-09-4.0.5.fw

I would appreciate any further help 

Thank you,
