I have a Sony Vaio laptop with a 4965AGN. I'd been using the iwlwifi package with a 2.6.23 kernel. I just moved to tuxonice-sources-2.6.24-r4, so I'm now using the iwlwifi driver that's included with the kernel.
Now if I need to restart the wireless interface (using /etc/init.d/net.wlan0 restart), it goes down fine but fails to come back up. I get this error: * Wireless radio has been killed for interface I'm not sure where to begin troubleshooting. FWIW, here's how the kernel is configured: ~ $ zgrep -i mac80211 /proc/config.gz CONFIG_MAC80211=m CONFIG_MAC80211_RCSIMPLE=y # CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUG is not set zgrep -i iwl /proc/config.gz CONFIG_IWLWIFI=y CONFIG_IWLWIFI_DEBUG=y CONFIG_IWLWIFI_SENSITIVITY=y CONFIG_IWLWIFI_SPECTRUM_MEASUREMENT=y CONFIG_IWLWIFI_QOS=y CONFIG_IWL4965=m # CONFIG_IWL3945 is not set -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
