Package: linux-image-2.6.24-1-amd64
Version: 2.6.24-6
Severity: important

*** Please type your report below this line ***
The bnx2 driver was included in the 2.6.22-3 kernel (config-2.6.22-3-amd64:CONFIG_BNX2=m) but not anymore in 2.6.24. Still this device is commonly used in Dell/HP server hardware and so 
quite usefull.

please do a quick google research next time before reporting
useless duplicates. kthx

broadcom does not give a sane license to the firmware
allowing free redistribution and cod modifiction.
nor does the broadcom maintainer ack a switch to sane
userspace loading. you may want to complain to him.

2.6.25 in unstable has bnx2 ported to request_firmware()
you'll need separate firwmare too.

closing.
