Hello, I am trying to get wlan working but it doesn't work. So far I have tried:
1. tried to boot up Ubuntu based LiveCD neon-kde; wlp1s0 recognized but device doesn't work => dmesg message: failed to fetch board data board-2.bin 2. using latest firmware driver [git.kernel.org]; rmmod ath10k_pci ath10k_core ath; modprobe ath10k_pci => wlp1s0 gone; dmesg: firmware not found 3. I found an instruction for user made firmware: a. I took the windows driver "qca61x4_2_2.bin" b. downloaded dissect.py at https://gist.github.com/kazikcz/8e5845ad84ca251aa295 c. downloaded assemble.py https://gist.github.com/kazikcz/c970cbf3a863ebbc4495 d. python dissect.py <qca61x4_2_2.bin => extracted fw[1-4].bin e. python assemble.py qca61x4_2_2_samsung_api_5 0 fw-2.bin fw-1.bin 0 >firmware-5.bin f. cp firmware-5.bin into /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/ g. using windows eeprom-file => cp eeprom_ar6320_3p0_SS_620.bin /lib/....../hw3.0/board.bin h. rmmod ath10k_pci ath10k_core ath; modprobe ath10k_pci => result: dmesg: firmware-5.bin loaded but "board-2.bin failed" 4. using a rolling release / installation iso archlinux-2017.10.01-x86_64.iso; doesn't work 5. ???? user made "board-2.bin"; but how? 6. ???? another kernel version? 7. ????? Any Idea?
