[Bug 1383184] Re: Atheros Qualcomm Killer N1525 Wireless-AC [168c:003e] is not supported

 

I get the following error when I try to install

Note that I also tried the steps from #190 (except I used the .tar.gz file). Putting the name, dmesg and lspci information incase it's relevant:

  Card detail: Qualcomm Atheros Device [168c:003e] (rev 20)
  Subsystem: Bigfoot Networks, Inc. Device [1a56:1525]

  This is on a fully updated Ubuntu Server 14.04 installation, with the ubuntu-desktop environment installed. This happened in order to get the md raid drivers for raid0 on my system, as the desktop version doesn't support them.
