I also seem to be having issues with firmware loading. Any clues would be helpful.

I have a Gumstix Overo Fire with a built in libertas_sdio, and an ar9170usb

It finds the libertas firmware just fine, but not the ar9170 firmware.

I'm using a 2.6.29 kernel. This worked fine with compat-wireless-2009-11-17. All the firmware files are in /lib/firmware.

Here's some dmesg output:
