Bug#847770: linux-image-4.8.0-1-armmp: tca-6507 driver missing - required to turn on wifi chip
Package: src:linux
Version: 4.8.7-1
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream
Dear Maintainer,
I started running the standard debian armmp kernel on the GTA04 and noticed
that some driver are missing.
For starters this bug is about wireless lan. The device features a Marvell 8686
module which is supported by the libertas driver.
On this specific board, the wifi chip is switched on and off by a TCA 6507.
Please consider enabling the driver for this chip in the armmp config:
CONFIG_LEDS_TCA6507
