Please include RV630_cp.bin (for example, from
http://sidux.net/bfree/firmware/lib/firmware/radeon/RV630_cp.bin)
as without this piece of firmware, there's no acceleration
for certain types of Radeon HD 2600 Series video cards.

Thanks

This file is only used by Debian packages of kernel versions 2.6.30-31.
The firmware-loading code was accepted upstream for Linux 2.6.32, but
with each of the R600- and R700-series chips' firmware split into two
separate files (in this case, RV630_me.bin and RV630_pfp.bin).  Since
2.6.30 and .31 were not part of a Debian stable release, the combined
files are considered obsolete and only the separate files are included
in firmware-nonfree.
