One more sliver of progress has been made. 
I installed unzip, and ran the extract.sh script. 
I now DO have the two relevant files. 

BUT...

The subdirectories of 3.5.0-17-generic do not seem to exist within my /lib/firmware/ directory. 
What DOES exist is 3.5.0-23-generic  AND  3.5.0-42-generic. 

Should I: 
* copy both files into both directories, or
* only one or the other and run some sort of a clean-up utility program ???
