what is referred here as firmware is the bios of the computer - upgrade.

the missing atheros firmware is not related to the ACPI error - you can
install the missing firmware either via debian package or from the vendor.
install:

$ apt-cache search firmware-atheros
firmware-atheros - Binary firmware for Atheros wireless cards
