linux-firmware-nonfree contains misnamed BCM2033* files

[cagney]

Binary package hint: linux-firmware-nonfree

This is regression (upgrading looses the previous firmware) related to #515424

The firmware is asking for BCM2033-MD.bin and BCM2033-FW.bin and not the lower case equiv of the names which are included. Below is dmesg log from me fixing the problem:

[134143.666896] usb 1-6.1: USB disconnect, address 15

Howdy cagney, and thank you for helping to improve Ubuntu by opening this ticket. What version were you upgrading from and to?

[cagney (andrew-cagney)]

upgrade from previous to latest (10.04?).

[Ville Ranki (ville-ranki)]

I can confirm this. Renaming files allowed firmware to load (although i have #85247 now).
