The missing iwlwifi.ko should be in /lib/modules/3.18.11-gentoo/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/iwlegacy/iwl3945.ko
Did you forget to "make modules_install"? Have a look in "modinfo iwlwifi".

The other drivers, e100, e1000, ipw2100, iwl4965 and iwl3945 should not harm, but may be disabled in the kernel.
Can you extend the grep with \|0000:02:00.0 ?

Looks like module iwlwifi were not available. But at least lsmod seems to work now.
Maybe you should do a "make clean" before doing "make && make install modules_install".

Still with CONFIG_IWLWIFI=m of course!!

Suggest add sys-kernel/linux-firmware ~amd64 to /etc/portage/package.keywords or /etc/portage/package.accept_keywords or wherever you keep them and re-emerge linux-firmware . iwlwifi-7260-12 exists in 0320 version. If already keyworded, never mind. https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/iwlwifi may be of interest Shows version -12 needed for kernel 3.19+ and version -13 for kernel 4.1+ . _________________ Defund the FCC.

iwlwifi-7260-ucode-25.17.12.0.tgz seems to also be in iwl7260-ucode/iwl7260-ucode-0.12.16.25.

How could one explain this hell of version numbers in the wiki article?

Could you tell me who should be set in /etc/conf.d/module...

I set as this:

Quote:

modules="r8169"
modules="iwlwifi"
modules="iwldvm"
modules="iwlmvm"
modules="rt2x00mmio"
modules="rt2800lib"
modules="rt2800mmio"
modules="rt2x00pci"
modules="rt2x00lib"
modules="rt2800pci"
modules="b43"
modules="iwl4965"
modules="iwl3945"
modules="iwlegacy"

And it will display "Failed load iwlegacy.ko" when startup os.

If I set as this:

Quote:

modules="r8169"
modules="iwlwifi"

And it will display "Failed load iwlwifi.ko" when startup os.

Looks like there is something wrong...

Thanks

Code:

modules="r8169 iwlwifi"

What error you get when you do

Code:

modprobe r8169

?

Hm, mine is full of commented-out lines (# at the beginning).
Maybe service /etc/init.d/modules is no longer needed? I don't have it in any runlevel.
