Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: linux-firmware
SRU Justification:
Impact: The ath9k-htc module is contained in the compat-wireless-2.6.37
backports for Lucid and Maverick. However the firmware for that module
is missing.
Fix: Import the firmware file from the official firmware repository
(already included in Natty). This is a separate new file. So regressions
are not to be expected.
Testcase: Inserting a wireless dongle that requires the ath9k-htc module
fails without this.
** Affects: linux-firmware (Ubuntu)
Importance: Wishlist
Assignee: Stefan Bader (stefan-bader-canonical)
Status: In Progress
** Tags: lucid maverick
** Description changed:
