 In 12.1.0 we have sd8686 firmware from two packages, libertas-
 sd8686-firmware pulled in by olpc-os-builder, and linux-firmware.
 According to ''ethtool -i eth0'', the firmware loaded into the module is
 9.70.3.p36, which is not a version available from
 http://dev.laptop.org/pub/firmware/libertas/

 In 13.1.0 we have sd8686 firmware from only one package, libertas-
 sd8686-firmware pulled in by olpc-os-builder.  The firmware loaded into
 the module is 9.70.20.p0

 In 12.1.0 the 9.70.20.p0 firmware can be loaded by hiding the
 /lib/firmware/libertas directory.

 Which firmware version is the correct one to be used?
