Linux-firm-ware is bloated (13M+) and designed with PC needs in mind running everywhere. To make it slim to meet needs of mobile device, here it's a first effort to split this big package, see [1]. It has a separate linux-firmware-extra package. For main package, I just put the really needed stuff for current vertical/platforms by going through changelog. I move OLPC XO stuff and Intel wifi/wimax stuff to -extra while it's used in netbook. With this, linux-firmware is just 1.3M, 10% small than before. BTW, this is just first step, next step is to create vertical specific firmware package if needed.
Please have a review and let me know if anything missed that's needed for your platform. [1]http://build.meego.com/package/view_file?file=linux-firmware.spec&package=linux-firmware&project=home%3Apeter%3Abranches%3AMeeGo%3A1.2%3Aoss%3ATesting&srcmd5=d278037505681c7de457314fa0bdeadf Peter
