Subject: [PATCH] IPW2100 fails to load firmware when booting on battery
Date: Sat, 21 Jan 2006 21:18:48 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060121201848.GA19221@suse.de> (raw)


We carry this patch around since a while. Is it safe to increase the
timeout also in mainline?

References: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=74526

IPW2100 fails to load firmware when booting on battery; increasing the
timeout solves the problem.
