please update linux-firmware to include latest iwlwifi firmware

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Dear all,

I found that iwlwifi firmware for 7260 is updated on upstream.

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/commit/?id=824994715e0276e64cdbf2badbe02921a78fb287

When I use the previous firmware (provided by the current linux-firmware rpm),
the connection to several hotspot is sometimes lost.
So, I've tried to use the new firmware, and it seems to be work fine.

I do not know what is the criteria to include latest firmware.
I can not find what kind of fixes applied to the latest firmware.
But, I think it might be helpful for many laptop users.

I comment that the iwlwifi firmware for kernel 3.13 are also provided on upstream.

Best,
