Hi Diederik, My bad. Let me explain again. Taking into account the firmware errors:
- Realtek messages are fixed now. There are no actions to be done here. - iwlwifi: If you are still working on a new version containing the -83 file, that should fix some warning messages but not all of them. There is another message (*firmware: failed to load iwl-debug-yoyo.bin (-2)*) that I think is related to bug #966218. This bug has been there for a while, so I don't know what's happening here. Nobody explains what's going on or why this file is not included in the firmware package. Thanks!

Can you answer the question I asked previously?
