Hi,
I compiled new GENERIC kernel with patch you provided. My laptop booted
without problem. Kernel seems OK.
My first findings and improvements:
- Before, "ifconfig iwm0 list scan" wasn't work and gives an error
message. Now, list scan still doesn't work, doesn't give error, but adds to
dmesg "iwm0: fatal firmware error" message.
- Before, wpa_supplicant were associate with ~1 min or more latency. Now
association is in ~5 sec.
- iwm connects to network without problem.
Thanks,
Mustafa
