            <thetext>There is a new version (1.0.0-1, I bumped it locally to 1.0.0_p1) available for iwlwifi and it compiles and works here. According to the ChangeLog, the kernel panic bug has been fixed.

For the iwl4965-ucode it seems that Intel did a change in version numbering. The most recent version is: iwlwifi-4965-ucode-4.44.1.18.tgz
The ebuild had two issues:
1) You should install to /$(get_libdir)/firmware, not just /lib/firmware
2) The name of the firmware in the package is iwlwifi-4965-1.ucode, but the driver still looks for iwlwifi-4965.ucode, I solve it by using &quot;newins&quot;, another option would probably be to patch iwlwifi</thetext>

            <thetext>BTW, Im not bumping the firmware as it is suppose to be incompatible with the current driver (I believe it is for the unstable version of the driver).</thetext>
