/usr is the location hotplug insists on.  If we ever get our
discover-hotplug replacement done, it will be smarter about this.


According the /etc/hotplug/firmware.agent:

FIRMWARE_DIRS="/lib/firmware /usr/local/lib/firmware /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware"

So '/lib' is another option.


Saw this on fedora devel:

notting-H+wXaHxf7aLQT0dZR+AlfA@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:
The default firmware directory for hotplug is being changed
to /lib/firmware from /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware. This is
being done so that device module loading on boot will work
correctly.

This will affect those of you with prism54, ipw2100/ipw2200
cards, and other cards that need hotplugged firmware.
