ath10k/cal-pci-0000:01:00.0.bin Location

Hi,
Anyone knows where is this driver?
I am also looking for ath10k/pre-cal-pci-0000:01:00.0.bin

It's a kernel module. In /,lib/modules/kernel-version

Is there a way to download from this location?

The driver is ath10k.ko, indicating a kernel module. All that PCI:<long-number> stuff is the device's location the PCI bus, and isn't used outside the hardware level. It's certainly no part of a driver number, because a different m/b might have the ath10k at a different location.

In addition to the driver, there is firmware, but the ath10k should be supported by the kernel. You are up a blind alley. Let's get to the problem. What's wrong?

Sorry my question was wrong.
Maybe you know the location of this firmware?
Problem is big to discuss and I know how this ends (me asking and no one answers).
So I am trying to make it simple and find why Debian installation media is asking for such a firmware among others.

I think you're hung up on ath10k when it's most likely to be working. Try

Code:

lsmod |grep ath10k

If that shows you ath10k, it's loading, and you can forget it. Have you a WiFi problem?

You are telling me that this firmware is not available?
