That's exactly what I did too after seeing the root article in this |
| 11 |
thread, and yes it works. |

I am puzzled by one thing, though: according to the Help text for the |
| 14 |
first kernel option above (Include in-kernel firmware blobs), that |
| 15 |
should actually compile in the firmware that ships with the kernel |
| 16 |
itself, for _all_ compiled drivers. Yet I see at the end of "make |
| 17 |
install": |

and checking afterwards, yes these files are there, and by their mod |
| 48 |
times they were created by the latest make install step. |

So, why are these firmware bits not built in now? |
