Hopefully my ascii art makes sense Yes, but what I don't get is how these single images are supposed to work with so many different controllers. The current drivers will try to load different files for different chips: [...] > 2760/2790/2860/2890 11 \ > 3060/3062/3562/2790 n/a | 26 > 3090 19 / These are currently covered by rt2860.bin and rt3090.bin, but the new archive only contains rt2860.bin. > 2870 12 \ > 2770/3572 n/a | 22 > 3070 17 / > 3071 17 / [...] These are covered by rt2870.bin, rt3070.bin and rt3071.bin. The new archive only contains rt2870.bin. If you can confirm that the new images really do work with all the controllers they are claimed to, and with the current drivers, then we should update the package and David Woodhouse's linux-firmware repository. Without that, I'm hesitant to make any changes. Ben. -- Ben Hutchings We get into the habit of living before acquiring the habit of thinking. - Albert Camus
