Hi, I have an ath10k_pci device that I'm trying to get hooked to the Internet, but I'm having some strange issues. It is trying to load the 2.1 firmware, but I don't think that is the proper firmware for the interface to have; I think it ought to be loading the 3.0 module, but am not quite sure on that either, or how I could go about injecting that into the modprobe; I wasn't able to pinpoint the firmware blob the ISO was using, so that wasn't much of a pointer in the right direction either. I see that the 3.0 blob does exist in /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCABLEFAGD/HW3.0, but there are many bin files, so choosing the right one is a bit tricky by the looks of things. Earlier today, I had read the Gentoo wiki on the topic, which suggested that I compile the blob into the kernel itself, but the link they gave only described the advantages and disadvantages of modular kernels and how to drop kmod if you're using a moduleless kernel. Does anybody have any insight on this matter?
Thanks, Hunter
