Comment # 7 on bug 982809 from S. B.

Hi again, it appears that something has changed in Tumbleweed during the past
few months, and my SuseStudio Tumbleweed images no longer activate iwlwifi
automatically. Here are the relevant dmesg lines:

--------------------
[    9.030554] iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: Direct firmware load for
iwlwifi-5000-5.ucode failed with error -2
[    9.030727] iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: Direct firmware load for
iwlwifi-5000-4.ucode failed with error -2
[    9.030897] iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: Direct firmware load for
iwlwifi-5000-3.ucode failed with error -2
[    9.031066] iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: Direct firmware load for
iwlwifi-5000-2.ucode failed with error -2
[    9.031235] iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: Direct firmware load for
iwlwifi-5000-1.ucode failed with error -2
[    9.031390] iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: no suitable firmware found!
--------------------

Manually modprobe'ing iwlwifi successfully activates the WiFI.

Could some of the grep and sed magic be modified to simply look for "firmware
... failed ..." ?

Thanks a lot!
