RHEL 9.2 kernel 5.14 and firmware for ath10k_pci QCA6174
Hi,
I have a motherboard with Atheros' QCA6174 chipset for wifi and a RHEL 9.2 server. The wifi card doesn't start, I tried to update the firmware but without success. Depending on the version I use I have different errors.
I even used the patched board.bin file for 4.x kernel to see if it would work.
My card :
