I had to rename one of three bdata files, otherwise I got error from the driver that it wasn't able to load the bdata file, because it couldn't find it. I tried all combinations fw-3.bin only without athwlan.bin, fw-2.bin without athwlan.bin and so on but without success ;-( I downloaded ath6kl FW from kernel firmware git repository and I'm using linux kernel 3.4.5 downloaded from kernel source tree, I know that you use some other repository for downloading Kernel but I also downloaded that before we were introduced and made a diff with my kernel on ath6kl drivet and there are practically no changes between the two in loading and powering up the modulei to the point where my module doesn't reply anymore? If you downloaded F ath6kl FW from some other repository, could you please tell me the URL? >> are so they can not be found and loaded, timeout during fw uploads >> doesn't occur anymore after insertion of the ath6kl_sdio module, but >> there is a HW startup failure while awaiting CTRL message from the >> chip (err = -EIO).

As explained above I tried different combinations also using fw-2.bin or fw-3.bin without athwlan.bin being present in the corresponding FW folder.
