--- Comment #8 from Leo Milano <lmilano@gmx.net>  2010-02-13 13:02:07 PST ---
Thank you again, Alex, and sorry for reporting a non-bug.

For the record, and for the benefit of other people: the location for the
firmware in Ubuntu is: 

/lib/firmware/KERNEL_VERSION/radeon

For example:

leo@grisell:/lib/firmware/2.6.33-020633rc8-generic/radeon$ ls
R100_cp.bin  R300_cp.bin  R520_cp.bin  R600_pfp.bin  R700_rlc.bin  RS690_cp.bin
 RS780_pfp.bin  RV610_pfp.bin  RV620_pfp.bin  RV630_pfp.bin  RV635_pfp.bin 
RV670_pfp.bin  RV710_pfp.bin  RV730_pfp.bin  RV770_pfp.bin
R200_cp.bin  R420_cp.bin  R600_me.bin  R600_rlc.bin  RS600_cp.bin  RS780_me.bin
 RV610_me.bin   RV620_me.bin   RV630_me.bin   RV635_me.bin   RV670_me.bin  
RV710_me.bin   RV730_me.bin   RV770_me.bin

Note that the Rxxxx_rlc.bin seem to be only required when using KMS, and are
not currently provided with the kernel mainline ppa (all the other ones are).
Also: performance seems to be better without KMS these days -- I get about 16
fps in WoP without KMS, and 20 with KMS, please see here:
