Subject: iwlwifi: Do not request unreleased firmware for IWL6000
|

Bug-Debian: http://bugs.debian.org/689416
|
||||
|
||||
The iwlwifi driver currently supports firmware API versions 4-6 for
|
||||
these devices. It will request the file for the latest supported
|
||||
version and then fall back to earlier versions. However, the latest
|
||||
version that has actually been released is 4, so we expect the
|
||||
requests for versions 6 and then 5 to fail.
|
||||
|
||||
The installer appears to report any failed request, and it is probably
|
||||
not easy to detect that this particular failure is harmless. So stop
|
||||
requesting the unreleased firmware.
