Package: firmware-iwlwifi Version: 20170823-1 Severity: normal I have a 4th generation Lenovo Thinkpad Carbon X1 with Intel 8260 wifi/bluetooth:
04:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Intel Corporation Wireless 8260 [8086:24f3] (rev 3a) Subsystem: Intel Corporation Wireless 8260 [8086:1130] Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 130 Memory at f1100000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=8K] Capabilities: <access denied> Kernel driver in use: iwlwifi Kernel modules: iwlwifi When trying to use my bluetooth mouse yesterday, I couldn't get it to connect successfully. I tried again today, and after a lot of hassle turning Bluetooth on and off in GNOME and pressing the mouse's connect button it connected. But it only worked for a short time, about a minute, then the mouse stopped working even though the BT config said it was connected. This kept happening each time I reconnected. I've replaced the package with 20161130-3 from stable, and bluetooth seems to work correctly with this older firmware. But I had the same problem a few months ago (which I commented on at a now closed bug <https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=190831>) with kernel 4.9.6-3 and firmware-iwlwifi 20161130-2, so it seems like something that was changed between 20161130-2 and -3 cured this problem, but it has now regressed. -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers unstable-debug APT policy: (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'testing-debug'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.13.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_GB:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) firmware-iwlwifi depends on no packages. firmware-iwlwifi recommends no packages.
