The lines you quoted above show, that Nick already used the unofficial image with firmware included. I guess this lines are related: > Feb 25 15:44:42 kernel: [ 87.777956] iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: firmware: failed > to load iwlwifi-6000g2b-6.ucode (-2) > Feb 25 15:44:42 kernel: [ 87.777957] firmware_class: See > https://wiki.debian.org/Firmware for information about missing firmware > Feb 25 15:44:42 kernel: [ 87.777958] iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: Direct firmware > load for iwlwifi-6000g2b-6.ucode failed with error -2 > Feb 25 15:44:42 kernel: [ 87.777969] iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: firmware: failed > to load iwlwifi-6000g2b-5.ucode (-2) > Feb 25 15:44:42 kernel: [ 87.777970] iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: Direct firmware > load for iwlwifi-6000g2b-5.ucode failed with error -2 > Feb 25 15:44:42 kernel: [ 87.777971] iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: minimum version > required: iwlwifi-6000g2b-5 > Feb 25 15:44:42 kernel: [ 87.777972] iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: maximum version > supported: iwlwifi-6000g2b-6 However, I have no clue what happens here...
