Make sure to use the "raw" link to the right of the names of the files
that you need. According to the "history" links, these two files were
added to the kernel in 2008 and have not been changed since.


That at least got me a copy of the file.  Thanks.


They are also identical to the files in the Debian
firmware-linux-nonfree package.


Are you sure this is true for agere_sta_fw.bin? My wireless is currently
broken with version 0.26 of firmware-linux-nonfree. It worked with the
previous version. Is there another step after upgrading
firmware-linux-nonfree to get the agere driver installed.

There are some threads out there about corrupted agere*.bin files
because of a file transfer problem..


Installing the above version of agere_sta_fw.bin elimated the
 eth2: Lucent/Agere firmware doesn't support manual roaming
message but the card still doesn't associate.

Hopefully the relevant part of the log follows:

Thanks,
