Hi,
ifconfig -a do not list my card, iwlwifi fails to activate it because firmware is missing:
| Code: |
dmesg | grep iwlwifi
[ 2.856317] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: irq 45 for MSI/MSI-X
[ 2.860431] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: request for firmware file 'iwlwifi-7260-6.ucode' failed.
[ 2.860434] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: no suitable firmware found!
[ 75.593691] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: irq 46 for MSI/MSI-X
[ 75.594398] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: request for firmware file 'iwlwifi-7260-6.ucode' failed.

I have emerged linux-firmware and it seems I have a newer firmware:

I am using gentoo sources (3.10.7-gentoo-r1).
Any suggestions? |

| Your kernel is too old. You need at least 3.11 |

Does it mean to use something different from gentoo-sources?
Wouldn't be a mess to switch to vanilla-sources (I would not know how to configure a kernel from scratch...) |

In the end I used vanilla-sources coping just the .config file.
Thanks.
Still, the driver is buggy (more on that in another thread) |
