OK, sorry. It looked like the problem in these three bugs was that newer versions of the driver that preferred firmware-6.bin were incompatible with firmware-5.bin even though they tried to use it. Since the older driver version also fails, I suppose I should revert the previous upstream change to firmware-5.bin. Ben. -- Ben Hutchings Teamwork is essential - it allows you to blame someone else.
