Erm, that's a lie. I've been meaning to fix it. I'm like 99.999% sure it always
has to be nvXX_fucYYY[cd]. I'll double-check it again before updating the wiki.
Putting it in /lib/firmware/nouveau is sufficient -- adding in the kernel
version also works, but you'd normally just do that for firmware that was
kernel version dependent, which this isn't.

Don't know what to say. It just uses request_firmware() so it's whatever the
kernel's normal mechanism for loading firmware.</pre>
