I followed the instructions from comment #115 and my ath10k now works perfectly on my MSI WS-60 laptop (running Gentoo).
Per Jose (comment #121) I had no problem compiling the nvidia driver package or the bbswitch package against the kvalo/ath kernel fork. (the closed source nvidia-drivers-349.16 with bbswitch-0.8). Per David L in #118, I believe this bug is only for the Wi-Fi (ath10k) driver/firmware. At least on my laptop, the Wi-fi/Bluetooth isn't combined (on my MSI, it uses the ath3k bluetooth; same firmware issue we have with the Wi-fi; do a search and you'll see similar mailing list threads -- actually they may be combined; who knows they might be on the same chip -- but anyway they have two different drivers/firmware). I don't know what the licensing issues are with firmware. Can I fork kvalo's ath-firmware repo on github and commit the ones created using the above Python scripts? If so I'll try and do that tomorrow. Some other notes: I only got this working as a kernel module; built-in didn't work (wasn't sure how to pass in skip_otp=y via kernel args... tried ath10k_core.skip_otp=y, ath10k.skip_otp=7; ath10k_pci.skip_otp=y ... but that was with the 4.0.0-gentoo sources and not the kvalo fork...so there might be stuff in that fork that isn't in official yet? Haven't tried built-in with kvalo's. I might do that later). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1383184 Title: Atheros Qualcomm Killer N1525 Wireless-AC [168c:003e] not supported To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1383184/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
