Hi Paolo,

Interesting. Now if Google search is correct the vendor id for this
device indicates this is a Realtek (v024C) WLAN (c07) device. So what
makes you say its linux id is 02d0:a9a6?

In upstream linux I do not see any SDIO device drivers in realtek
folder. Maybe Larry can provide clue/hint if a driver for this device is
publicly available somewhere.

Regards,
Arend
