So a couple of things need to happen, let's patch the kernel 2.6.36 and see how things work with the new firmware for a few days. Then, after a few days of testing, I'll add the patch to gentoo-sources for .36. Also, the ebuild will have to check kernel version and die on < gentoo-sources-2.6.36-r6 I have this hardware, so I can do the testing myself. Your experiences with the new firmware is also appreciated. new gentoo-sources-2.6.36-r6 released with patch that can use iwl6050-41.28.5.1. iwl6050-41.28.5.1 also release in portage tree. I will follow up to get this kernel patch upstream so the gentoo-sources dependency is not needed. Updated kernel and firmware, everything seems to be working perfectly fine.. Thank you!
