Summary: Review Request: iwl4965-firmware - Firmware for Intel® PRO/Wireless 4965 A/G/N network adaptors https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=248224 ------- Additional Comments From matthias@xxxxxxxxxxxx 2007-07-26 09:59 EST ------- Using alternatives seems plain wrong. It's not like anyone wants to "choose" the firmware they use with a given kernel. The solution is to try and convince Intel to go back to how they were doing things previously, as it was very easy to bundle the older firmwares along with the latest, so that people could downgrade and upgrade kernels all they wanted (basically, the latest package always worked with all kernels from the first one of the install media, to the very latest errata one). If they don't want to do it... well... either try to implement something similar inside the Fedora kernel (ugh!), or continue trying to convince them, as I'm pretty sure they'll be "suffering" from the situation too, with feedback about problems related to the firmware version not being the right one, over and over. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
