Re: Direct firmware load failed with error 2

Great, thanks Ben, 

That cleared up the firmware load error but I now have:

[    6.997553] ath10k_pci 0000:01:00.0: BAR 0: assigned [mem 0x01000000-0x011ff]
[    7.075559] ath10k: pci irq MSI                                              
[    9.753487] ath10k: ctl_resp never came in (-110)

[    9.843681] ath10k_pci: probe of 0000:01:00.0 failed with error -110 

Any ideas? Let me know if I should post this new.

Thanks a bunch
Colin

You need board.bin too.  Something like this if you want to
use my firmware, or firmware-5.bin for upstream 10.2 firmware:

[root@ben-ota-1 lanforge]# ls -l /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA988X/hw2.0/
total 1084
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root   2116 Sep 27 14:43 board.bin
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 201324 Oct 13 18:48 firmware-2.bin

Thanks,
Ben
