Once again, I must ask for help from Gentoo users who are more smarter than I.

I've been trying to get an Intel 7265 to connect to wifi.

I've gotten the firmware loaded and it will scan successfully, but when I attempt to connect to a wifi network, wpa_gui stopps on "scanning" and I see some pretty gnarly dmesg output.

dmesg output available here: http://dpaste.com/F4Y7BN6ZW

kernel config is available here: http://dpaste.com/FS55RUY3P

Code:
user@localhost ~ $ ls -l /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-726*

Looking at this now, do I need to have the 7265D entry in the kernel config?

Your regulatory.db could not be loaded:
Code:
[    0.461937] platform regulatory.0: Direct firmware load for regulatory.db failed with error -2


Reason is explained in first "Important" Chapter here: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Iwlwifi

(=> just add it to your line: CONFIG_EXTRA_FIRMWARE="iwlwifi-7265-10.ucode" OR change your modules to <M> instead of static)

You should also do this: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Intel_microcode

I saw also you didnt configure kernel as Low Power System (=Notebook):
Code:
# CONFIG_X86_INTEL_LPSS is not set

pietinger,

Thank you. I had missed the microcode. All works now.
