bad firmware for Qualcomm Atheros QCA9377

#1 Post by jack25 »

Hi,
I just installed debian stretch (9.6.0) on my asus vivobook and having a firmware for my wifi card seem to be required.

Code: Select all

root@vivo:/home/jacques# lspci | grep Ath
02:00.0 Network controller: Qualcomm Atheros QCA9377 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter (rev 31)
So i installed firmware-atheros (latest version: 20180825+dfsg-1~bpo9+1)

the required firmware is indeed present in my /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA9377 !

however I still have trouble while booting, and still no WiFi

Code: Select all

root@vivo:/home/jacques# dmesg|grep -iE 'firmware|ath'

So to my understanding ath10k/pre-cal-pci-0000:02:00.0.bin seems to bee missing (a find / on my computer does not show any..).
Do you have any idea on how I could have it work?

Thank you in advance
