Hello listers,
I have a laptop (HP dv2035us - pavillion) with both OS 11.2 and 11.4 installed. The wireless works in 11.2, but not in 11.4. It has an Intel Pro/Wireless 3945AG/BG chip. <snipped>
Hi Gustav,
According to http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/iwlegacy 'iwl3945' and 'iwl_legacy' are correct. Have you checked to see if the firmware is installed?

hth & regards,
Carl Thanks Carl, I have the firmware installed, the exact version you mention. I don't think that is the cause, Gustav.
No problem, Gustav. It seems this can be quite a troublesome card. Fortunately that means lots of troubleshooting threads in various archives to study. :-) I don't have the same hardware nor further time to spend on it today, but I've tried to help narrow down the search field a bit. The phrases below in Google each yielded many extremely good threads (mind any line wrapping): Linux troubleshooting Intel Pro/Wireless 3945ABG Linux troubleshooting Intel Pro/Wireless 3945ABG \ site:forums.opensuse.org Linux troubleshooting Intel Pro/Wireless 3945 AG site:opensuse.org Linux troubleshooting Intel Pro/Wireless 3945 AG site:ubuntuforums.org hth & regards, Carl -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
