Is this ubuntu's specific problem or you also getting these
warnings/errors on another releases.

Yes,it's specific to Ubuntu's kernel build process (make-kpkg). I had no time to try with regular kernel build process. But; if it's necessary, I can try it out. BTW, my box is Kubuntu 8.10 with latest updates.

Now, I tried with 2.6.29-rc2-git2 and the result is same. No difference. When I have time, I'll try via regular kernel compile process to see what will be happen.

Like I outlined in my previous email, this is a scripting / tools problem.
Updating your kernel will not help. Either the script or modinfo needs to
be modified to somehow recognize that while the driver does make
request_firmware() calls, the firmware resides in the kernel itself.

I got it. Sorry for the noise.
