Well, FWIW I offered to _merge_ a patch. :-) But, if I get some confirmation from a credible source at Intel that simply honoring the earlier version is sufficient I should have no particular problem squeezing-out such a patch. John On Tue, Mar 01, 2011 at 03:51:34PM -0300, Sebastian wrote: > Th

Thanks a million John for offering to write a patch. Today I spoke to Nathalie from Intel about this issue, ticket number: 8000209173. Nathalie said she would write to you on behalf of Intel that since Intel are prepared to have me use this card in Windows 7 (same EEPROM, same hardware), as Wey-wi

OK, thanks Wey_yi for chiming in, however, even if i do get the card to work in linux by recompiling the kernel or do use it in windows, as you say, given that the EPROM is not to FCC standard, could I be putting other components of my computer and/or myself at any risk? On Mon, Feb 28, 2011 at

Thanks John for the message. Did Wey-yi respond to your mail John? Is the "too old" Eprom, firmware conjecture reasonable, considering the card DOES work in Windows 7 as verified? Unfortunately swapping out the card is not feasible since it would have to travel to Australia from Argentina and then

Thank you for those who have taken the time to suggest possible ways to get my card working. It seems I have the latest firmware, the one that came with the Fedora 64-bit DVD, that I downloaded from fedora ~1 week ago. This is the output John was asking, [root@cupri Downloads]# rpm -q iwl6000-firm

Thanks for the help. Just some background info and a query. I downloaded and did a fresh install of 64-bit Fedora about a week ago from Fedora site.. Do I understand correctly that when I did the install, FC14 loaded the rev 09 firmware and that this is already an old firmware? Now, do I understa

Thanks, the output is below, seems to be rev 09. Will try to find later firmware. I think people got "Intel Corporation Centrino Advanced-N 6200" to work on and older Fedora kernel, but from google search don't know if anyone has got it to work on latest Fedora stable ... 00:00.0 Host bridge: I
