I was using an older version of compat-wireless, specifically a build from May 2011. In that release of compat-wireless, the firmware was loaded manually using a filesystem mounted in /sys. I recently downloaded a newer version of compat-wireless: compat-wireless-3.0.9-1. In this version, it appears to spawn a kernel thread to check /lib/firmware for the firmware and load it. If it is present, it loads the firmware, otherwise it fails saying that it cannot be found. I am having trouble with the automatic load: <3>[ 178.957584] otg_err: in s5pc110_otghcd_urb_dequeue()::00508 <3>[ 178.958650] => fail to cancel_transfer() <7>[ 178.959879] usb 1-1.2: hcd_unlink_urb d13aa200 fail -1 <7>[ 178.962510] usb 1-1.2: khubd timed out on ep0out len=0/4096 <3>[ 178.963274] usb 1-1.2: ath9k_htc: Firmware - htc_7010.fw download failed <4>[ 178.971658] ath9k_htc: probe of 1-1.2:1.0 failed with error -22 Is there a way to configure (e.g., config.mk) compat-wireless to use the manual way? So I'd like to give the manual route a shot. Thanks!
