Thanks, I understand now. Good that you upgraded, because Tim would have had to do it otherwise. At that stage of my diagnosis of #12757 I had excluded Open Firmware as cause; it has stopped running once the Linux kernel starts. So it should not have mattered what firmware was used. But to keep the number of variables down, I wrote Q2F19 in the call for testing [1]. The wireless adapter firmware version may have been relevant, but it had not changed for a very long time, and is included in the operating system build, so it didn't really matter. 1. http://lists.laptop.org/pipermail/devel/2014-February/038170.html -- James Cameron http://quozl.linux.org.au/ _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
