Is "qualcomm atheros qca61x4 wireless network adapter" driver available? Driver does not run on Samsung Galaxy Book (SM-W720) model.

The driver is included but this laptop seems to require a specific firmware, could you unzip the below file and copy it to /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0: board.zip

Hi... I have the same laptop. Just now I tried the board.bin suggested here and it isn't working. The wi-fi still won't enable.

Here is the output of dmesg|grep ath:

Anything else I can try?

These seem relevant.

@stvrly Thanks for the pointers :) I will try something in next release

stvrly commented 4 years ago

@sebanc Well, last week I bought an actual Chromebook :) ... so I don't need this driver anymore. But maybe @cheng80 still does.

sebanc commented 4 years ago

this patch has been included in the new r85 build

@cheng80 @stvrly hi, did either of you end up getting chromeos to run well on your galaxy book? I've just installed this on mine and I'm having problems with the screen being rotated and the touchscreen inputs being inverted that I can't resolve. You're the only people I've seen online using the same device.

stvrly commented 3 years ago

@moly Nope, I gave up and bought a Galaxy Chromebook instead.

moly commented 3 years ago

Ok, thanks anyway.

@sebanc regarding the WiFi issue, I installed brunch r91 and still had the same error. So I deleted board.bin and board-2.bin from /lib/firmware/ath10k/QCA6174/hw3.0/, then copied in the board.bin from your post above, rebooted and now WiFi is working. Thanks
