Subject: [QUERY] Intel Centrino Wireless-N 100 modules vs built-in
Date: Wed, 12 Jun 2013 12:23:26 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130612112326.GA10313@sauron> (raw)
Dear Devs,
I have a strange query. Building a custom kernel on my Samsung N145 notebook I came a cropper.
05:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Centrino Wireless-N 100
If I select:
Device Drivers->Network Device Support->Wireless LAN
<M> Intel Wireless WiFi Next Gen AGN - Wireless-N/Advanced-N/Ultimate-N (iwlwifi)
-M- Intel Wireless WiFi DVM Firmware support
all is hucky dory. But if I build-in these drivers into kernel (<*>), on boot dmesg reports:
[2.347954] iwlwifi 0000:05:00.0: request for firmware file 'iwlwifi-100-5.ucode' failed.
[2.351885] iwlwifi 0000:05:00.0: no suitable firmware found!
Am I missing something here - I don't quite understand why this happens?
Any help appricated please.
Please CC any replies please, I am not subscribed.
