I don't see this issue happened to me. @_@" I found the system still loads the iwlwifi for my Intel WLAN module. My kernel after dup are v3.4.33. Does it mean my kernel is not updated ? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

(2) Per comment#7, Matt tried to reproduce but he did not meet your problem. So, now if you can, can you retry what you did ( dup from 12.2 to 12.3 ). For me, I will close this issue if do not receive any update from you since almost 2 months no response from comment#7. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I can't reproduce the scenario again (the 12.2 partition is now replaced with ubuntu test-install....) yes the proposed action fixed my problem, so I suppose we better close this one. regards Rens -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
