Description David Carlos Manuelda 2008-12-30 01:23:22 UTC 
Since kernel 2.6.27 is being marked as stable nowadays (at least in amd64), and iwlwifi drivers are now included in kernel, I recommend stabilize those packages, as otherwise, those drivers won't work (in the 4965 case is because stable version does not work with that in-kernel iwlwifi driver version).

Reproducible: Always

iwl4965-ucode is being handled in bug #252610.

X86, please test and mark stable.

x86 has no hardware to test, feel free to mark it x86 yourself.
Comment 4 David Carlos Manuelda 2009-01-11 23:16:16 UTC 
x86 *has* hardware to test, I've tried it in a gentoo I installed to a friend, and if I don't remember too bad, he had an intel 5100 wireless card :)
