Thanks Ben, 

Got the location from the website:
root@apalis-imx6:/lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA988X/hw2.0# ls                         
firmware-2.bin         firmware-5.bin  

I'll figure out how to do some printk's (I'm a newbie).

Thanks,
Colin

Maybe add some printks in your driver to see exactly what it is trying to load?

Maybe firmware is in wrong location?

errno 2 == ENOENT, which probably means something like 'could not find file'.

Thanks,
Ben
