Thanks Luis Falk, please open a bug against the linux-firmware package for this issue: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware/+filebug Unless I've misread something, it sounds like we are just missing the firmware file.

That's compat-wireless for the original kernel shipped with Ubuntu 10.04. It means dev_set_uevent_suppress() is not called for Linux 2.6.30 and newer. 2.6.32-22.13 is also affected. 2.6.32-23.16 and 2.6.32-24.17 are not affected. It's entirely possible that the Ubuntu linux-backports-modules-wireless might have priority over compat-wireless. Also, it's possible that compat-wireless was compiled for a kernel that you are no longer running. Please make sure your system is up-to-date. That should be sufficient. If you really want to use self compiled compat-wireless, please remove linux-backports-modules-wireless if it's installed. In this case, don't forget to recompile compat-wireless every time you update the kernel. If you have further questions, please post the output of "modinfo ath9k_htc" so we know which module you are using. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 14+ messages in thread

Right, except that you missed "updates" before "cw". Everything is installed in one directory with no subdirectories. Also, the ath9k_htc driver is not there (I'm using the up-to-date 2.6.32-23 kernel). So ath9k_htc is from compat-wireless and it didn't work, but installing linux-backports-modules-wireless made it work somehow. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 14+ messages in thread

I tried Ubuntu 10.10 x86_64 with the current kernel (2.6.32-24-generic) with compat-wireless-2010-07-23 and without linux-backports-modules-wireless. I'm using TL-WN422G. Everything is working fine.

* [ath9k-devel] Firmware - ar9271.fw not found @ 2010-07-15 7:50 Falk-Moritz Schaefer 0 siblings, 0 replies; 14+ messages in thread From: Falk-Moritz Schaefer @ 2010-07-15 7:50 UTC (permalink / raw) To: ath9k-devel Hi all, I have problems getting TL-WN721N to work. I have two identical laptops both with a fresh Ubuntu 10.04 and BIOS Update. On one laptop the wireless usb device works, on the other one I get the firmware error after one minute (see below). Do you have any idea, what could go wrong?
