Bug Description

== SRU Justification ==
We've been providing updated compat-wireless stacks for those users interested in using the latest drivers and subsystem enhancements provided from upstream. Since v3.2 is now released, provide the upstream 3.2 compat-wireless stack via linux-backports-modules.

== Impact ==
There is no risk of regression as linux-backports-modules is an elective install and
all linux-firmware package updates are new ucode files.

== Fix ==

http://www.orbit-lab.org/kernel/compat-wireless-3-stable/v3.2/compat-wireless-3.2-1-s.tar.bz2
This tarball contains the vanilla v3.2 compat-wireless release plus pending stable patches from linux-next

SRU Justification for linux-firmware:

Impact: Several new Intel wireless drivers will not work with compat-wireless-3.2

Patch Description: Add new firmware files to the package

There is no chance for regression since these firmware files are new, and are only used by drivers in compat-wireless-3.2

Hello Leann, or anyone else affected,

Accepted linux-firmware into oneiric-proposed. The package will build now and be available in a few hours. Please test and give feedback here. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you in advance!
