Downloading the firwware is enough. The kernel have version 1.0 of the
driver already. You need to untar it into /lib/firmware.
Make sure you get the firmware for version 1.0 of the driver. That's the
one in the FC3/FC4 kernel.
Maybe also get the later firmware for when the kernel driver gets
updated so that the wireless card will come up with the new kernel.
