Description:
Ath11k is a wifi driver in the linux kernel that has been included since 5.9. The module is not enabled in the linux kernel that is used for installation, which I presume to be the linux kernel in the linux package. Additional info: * used the 2020.12.01 installation image * the firmware is already included in /lib/firmware/ath/ath11k/... * the ath11k module is enabled on Fedora rawhide and seems to work enough to provide network * the ath11k module is very early and does have bugs (like not working well after suspend), but I think it works enough to enable Steps to reproduce: 1. Boot to install environment with computer using ath11k wifi card. 2. modprobe ath11k_pci 3. cry |
