Hi,

  From time to time, my Intel Wifi adapter fail on cold boot, with the following in dmesg:

After "modprobe -r iwlagn ; modprobe iwlagn" or after a reboot, everything work fine:

This happens using 2.6.32-5 from Debian. I didn't had the opportunity to reproduce it using recent
kernel, but it occurs too rarely to conclude anything.

I had a look at the git log, without finding something that seems related to this problem. Does this
ring a bell for someone?

no sure, you are the ONLY one report this issue, since the device works
after you reload the module, the HW/SW is ok. maybe the timing/sequence
have problem on the kernel you are using on your system. The bus is not
ready when you boot the system and access the EEPROM.

What model of the laptop you have? could you try to upgrade to newer
kernel?

This problem also happens using 2.6.39-2-amd64 from Debian.

Because it happens not very often, I still didn't had the opportunity to reproduce it with up to date kernel.

The laptop is a two years old Sony Vaio VGN-AW21M.
