Hi,
I am a long-time Fedora user and I am looking at installing Fedora 22 on a MS Surface Pro 3 with Type Cover. But in order to do that (and to have the cover recognized), I noticed that the file linux-***/drivers/hid/hid-ids.h in the kernel from kernel.org is missing. This is however available at kcbench (which is the kernel compiled for benchmarking). I was wondering what the reasoning behind this is, because we can not have the Type Cover 3 recognized with the LiveCD while installing (and so installing without a keyboard is a major hassle).
Also, is this the correct arena for discussing linux-firmware. If not, I apologize. If it is, I was looking at:
/lib/firmware/mrvl
which is provided by the linux-firmware rpm and I noticed that it is missing some files:
This is what is in my updated files list:
pcie8897_uapsta.bin sd8797_uapsta.bin usb8766_uapsta.bin sd8688.bin sd8887_uapsta.bin usb8797_uapsta.bin sd8688_helper.bin sd8897_uapsta.bin usb8897_uapsta.bin
However, the list here (git://git.marvell.com/mwifiex-firmware.git) have some more -- here is thelist:
pcie8897_uapsta.bin sd8797_uapsta.bin usb8766_uapsta.bin* sd8688.bin sd8801_uapsta.bin* usb8797_uapsta.bin sd8688_helper.bin sd8887_uapsta.bin* usb8801_uapsta.bin* sd8787_uapsta.bin sd8897_uapsta.bin usb8897_uapsta.bin
So, I was wondering: why are some of the files missing? Is it because of non-OSS issues? Or should I file a bug/feature request?
Many thanks, Ranjan
