Hello All:
I have a brand new Toshiba Satellite P855-S5200, and cannot get wifi working on it under OpenSuse 12.1 (now with a Tumbleweed kernel), but OpenSuse cannot drive the wifi. This laptop has an Intel® Core™ i7-3610QM Processor, and Windows 7 drives the wifi flawlessly, claiming it is a Centrino-N 2200 device (if memory serves, I'll send a correction if this is wrong). For full disclosure, I filed an OpenSuse 12.1 bug report at: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=769678, here I'm requesting a fix in Tumbleweed.
Tumbleweed picks up fixes that are checked into the different packages and moved to their "stable" locations already, there are no Tumbleweed-specific fixes. It looks like you need to get those firmware files added to the kernel-firmware package, hopefully the owner of that package can do that. When that happens, then Tumbleweed will be updated wth the fix in it.
