[SOLVED] which package contains the firmware

Sorry for a newbie question but I just cannot find this info. After a fresh install I found the following error in dmesg:

radeon_cp: Failed to load firmware "radeon/R300_cp.bin"
....
iwlwlfi 0000:05:00.0 no suitable firmware found!

I found there is no firmware directory in /lib. I then installed xf86-video-ati package (supposed to be the driver for the radeon card) but apparently it does not have the firmware either. Which package contains them? I searched online and used pkgfile but didn't find them.
