Fedora Linux v5.15.12, asahi brcmfmac changes #46

Closed Redecorating closed 2 years ago

Redecorating commented 2 years ago

Updates to the jamlam patches include asahilinux's changes to brcmfmac, which have reading OTP data to select firmware working from linux. This means that the firmware in /lib/firmware/brcm has a new naming scheme, and we don't need to manually pick out which files to use. To do this manually:

# in macos (or linux if you have a copy of the wifi folder):
git clone https://github.com/AsahiLinux/asahi-installer --depth=1
cd asahi-installer/src
python3 -m firmware.wifi /usr/share/firmware/wifi firmware.tar
# move "firmware.tar" to linux, and in linux run:
cd /lib/firmware
sudo tar xf /path/to/firmware.tar
