New Post: Shipping new SparkLAN Wifi cards with Librem 5

Just installed my SparkLan. I just want to make sure before flashing. The folder
/usr/share/firmware-librem5-nonfree/firmware/
is empty, that is the folder brcm does not exist.

dmesg gives

[ 84.924481] mmc1: new ultra high speed SDR104 SDIO card at address 0001
[ 84.926981] brcmfmac: F1 signature read @0x18000000=0x1042aae8

[ 85.942590] brcmfmac: brcmf_sdio_htclk: HT Avail timeout (1000000): clkctl 0x50

So I do need to flash right? My system is uptodate byzantium.

(I did not think it would be so hard, I already had a hard time with the short cable…)
