Re: iwn0: fatal firmware error



I cc'd Patrick regarding his 
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-kern/2011/08/06/msg011131.html email 
and patch... Did you ever get a solution to your problem?

I next installed the firmware files:

iwlwifi-6000g2b-6.ucode
iwlwifi-6000g2b-5.ucode

I see these weren't mentioned in code. So I tried patch from email 
above. Now I get the same:

iwn0: could not configure bluetooth coexistence
iwn0: could not configure device
iwn0: cannot assign link-local address

I can set the ssid and nwkey even though ifconfig complains:
ifconfig: exec_matches: Resource temporarily unavailable

dhcpcd times out waiting for carrier. dhclient fails with:
ifconfig: exec_matches: Resource temporarily unavailable
iwn0: not found

ifconfig iwn0 shows me:

iwn0: flags=8803<UP,BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        ssid 5FYA8 nwkey 0x--------
        powersave off
        address: ac:72:89:ec:3b:1e
        media: IEEE802.11 autoselect
        status: no network

(I strike out nwkey.)
