Hi Milan,
I have the following file on my system:
/lib/firmware/iwlwifi-cc-a0-46.ucode
I verified this is the same file (contents and name) as the file
contained within the tar file "iwlwifi-cc-46.3cfab8da.0.tgz" on Intel's site.
I noticed Intel's site says this driver is for kernels 5.1+.
I am using the default CRUX kernel, 4.19.48, so this looks like the cause of the problem.
Do you know if others have gotten this driver to work?
If I installed a 5.1+ kernel, would it cause other incompatibilities in my CRUX setup?
The M.2 PCIE driver is installed, because that's where my root file system is.
Attached is the kernel's config file (extracted from /proc/config.gz) and confirmed to
match /usr/src/linux-4.19.48/.config.
Also attached are the outputs from "lsmod" and "lspci -v".
Before I can answer the question about monolithic or modular kernel,
I am sorry. Wrong wording of the question. I was wondering if you're using a ramdisk (initramfs ...., initrd ....)
I need to know the terminology:
Is a kernel monolithic until the first module is installed?
Or does the distinction have something to do with how the kernel is originally built?
The modinfo command also says a lot about modules which you need and what firmware version.
After loading the modules, check the dmesg output. This also sometimes shows a lot of error and warning messages
Excuse me. I do not speak English well.
