Can you recreate with a kernel from Linus? git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git That one works: [ 8.959748] iwlagn: Intel(R) Wireless WiFi Link AGN driver for Linux, 1.3.27ks [ 8.959750] iwlagn: Copyright(c) 2003-2008 Intel Corporation [ 8.959820] iwlagn 0000:03:00.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 17 [ 8.959829] iwlagn 0000:03:00.0: setting latency timer to 64 [ 8.959910] iwlagn: Detected Intel Wireless WiFi Link 5100AGN REV=0x54 [ 8.988419] iwlagn: Tunable channels: 13 802.11bg, 24 802.11a channels [ 8.989435] iwlagn 0000:03:00.0: PCI INT A disabled [ 8.990111] wmaster0 (iwlagn): not using net_device_ops yet [ 8.990365] phy0: Selected rate control algorithm 'iwl-agn-rs' [ 9.728524] wlan0 (iwlagn): not using net_device_ops yet I used the git repo from above at rev 7cb36b6ccdca03bd87e8faca7fd920643dd1aec7. OK, so if linux-2.6 works then I'm asserting that it isn't a regression. :-) Hopefully we can fix the problem so that we don't have to revisit this as a regression in 2.6.30... Recent patch (not yet in wireless-testing) will fix this. Please test with http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=123206483431256&w=2 I tested with compat-wireless-2009-01-17 and the patch above applied since 2.6.29-rc1 introduced some regressions with suspend on my laptop. iwlagn now loads fine and works. I can even set IBSS mode.
