Comment 145 for bug 1436940

Great to hear! I actually didn't know anything AT ALL about this myself until I got my current laptop, less than a year ago. During that time, a lot of people have been working on these cards, and it's gotten easier and easier to get them to work.

Many thanks to Kalle Valo (for the ath10k firmware repo), Anish Tondwalkar (for his QCA6164 firmware), and Diego (for his guide which I originally followed).

Before I first got my card to work, I had to download the backports, apply a patch to them, compile them, install them, and download firmware from multiple places. Now, I just have to download ONE repository and move/rename a few files. All that's left is for someone to get this firmware included in Ubuntu.

As for your question, yes, feel free to spread the knowledge! It's great to have been able to help!
