| sem2peie | a question to the ubuntu kernel team regarding the ATH driver | 17:06 |
|---|---|---|
| sem2peie | are there arguments against mapping the cards to 0x6c instead of 0x64? | 17:06 |
| sem2peie | https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/focal/commit/?h=hwe-5.8&id=2dc016599cfa9672a147528ca26d70c3654a5423 | 17:06 |
| sem2peie | 0x64 is the most restrictive world domain and the complete midband is missing | 17:07 |
| sem2peie | 0x6c in principle means world wide roaming and should be the most compatible domain | 17:07 |
| sem2peie | in addition, the card pulls the regdomain anyway when connected to an AP (association hints) and then adjusts the transmission power | 17:08 |
| sem2peie | but there are still some restrictions and not all channels can be used | 17:08 |
| sforshee | sem2peie: you'd have better luck asking the developers of that driver, maybe try in #linux-wireless | 17:13 |
| sem2peie | i have already asked the ath devs, but have not yet received an answer | 17:15 |
| sem2peie | sforshee but since you are here, the regdb in focal might not be up to date, there are some things missing (I think I saw your key in the CRDA) | 17:33 |
| sem2peie | for example there are some frequencies missing in Panama | 17:34 |

| sem2peie | :-) | 18:09 |
| sforshee | sem2peie: yeah it is out of date, we haven't often updated the regdb in stable releases | 18:12 |
| sforshee | if you file a bug though we can look at updating at least for those rules | 18:13 |
| sem2peie | this makes me a bit surprised, i mean your regdb is used by big projects like openwrt or dd-wrt and is always up-to-date | 18:19 |
| sem2peie | the regdb in focal is 2 years old and there is a lot missing | 18:19 |
| sem2peie | also a stable release wants to have a current regdb | 18:19 |
