Hi,

I'm having trouble loading the libertas_sdio wireless driver for the
guruplug when using Kernel 2.6.37.

When I execute modprobe libertas_sdio I get the following output:

guruplug-debian:~# modprobe libertas_sdio
libertas_sdio: Libertas SDIO driver
libertas_sdio: Copyright Pierre Ossman
libertas: failed to load firmware
libertas_sdio: probe of mmc0:0001:1 failed with error -5


The firmware files sd8688.bin and sd8688_helper.bin are located in
/lib/firmware.

The driver in kernel 2.6.35-10 does load but is very unstable and causes the
kernel to crash, so I thought I would give 2.6.37 a go.

Any thoughts

Thanks
