Description Christian Samsel 2012-06-15 12:35:55 UTC

So i received my new laptop with Intel Ultimate-N 6300 wireless card. i looked at 

# eix iwl

and none of the entries reflected with ucode is responsible for the 6300 card.

By visiting the iwlwifi website i found out it is the iwl6000 package. so please correct the description accrodingly.

currently:
Description: Intel (R) Wireless WiFi Advanced N 6000 ucode

info in intel page:
6000 Images – for Intel Centrino Ultimate-N 6300 and Advanced-N 6200
