Re: [PATCH 7/7] gnu: Enable CONFIG_HOTPLUG_PCI.

Hi David,

I have an Atheros AR9285 in GuixSD and it works. 
/sys/class/net/wlp2s0/device/driver says it's using the driver ath9k PCI.

I don't think the firmware needs to be uploaded at all to the AR9285 device.

It probably does have a firmware on-chip - I don't know.

Anyway, it worked out of the box without any extra firmware files on my 
computer.
