Hi , i am Paolo and i installed Debian stretch on my ezbook2 . One
problem is the wifi , the card a SDIO device , seems to be 02d0:a9a6
linux id or Broadcom AP6212 for windows....i installed deb package
firmware-brcm80211 and nvram sdio txt in /lib/firmware/brcm, reloaded
bcrmfmac module but nothing the card seems invisible or dead i don't
know if is a problem of firmware or my system cannot detect the sdio
card ...do you know something about this problematic ?
As always a kernel log could help or output from dmesg command. Also
can you run following commands: $ ls /sys/bus/sdio/devices $ cat
/sys/bus/sdio/devices/*/modalias Regards, Arend
paolo@paolo:~$ ls /sys/bus/sdio/devices
mmc1:0001:1
paolo@paolo:~$


paolo@paolo:~$ cat /sys/bus/sdio/devices/*/modalias sdio:c07v024CdB723
paolo@paolo:~$ sorry for previous mail ....ls was from another pc....:-[
it seems the system see only the card where the system is installed
Hi Paolo,

Interesting. Now if Google search is correct the vendor id for this
device indicates this is a Realtek (v024C) WLAN (c07) device. So what
makes you say its linux id is 02d0:a9a6?

In upstream linux I do not see any SDIO device drivers in realtek
folder. Maybe Larry can provide clue/hint if a driver for this device is
publicly available somewhere.

Regards,
Arend
Excuse me if i am boring you again , for me the wifi card of the ezbook2
is a ghost ...but googling it is a broadcom infact with this command i have
You are not boring anyone, but you really should ask the manufacturer.
All I can say is your sysfs shows there is only one SDIO device with
vendor id 0x024c (Realtek) and class 0x07 (WLAN) so brcmfmac will not be
probed for that as all aliases below for brcmfmac are listing vendor id
0x02d0 (Broadcom). That is all the command below indicates.

Arend
