Here is the fix: 1. Download from http://intellinuxwireless.org/?n=Downloads the 7/7/2008 firmware
2. From the archive, extract the file iwlwifi-4965-2.ucode to /tmp 3. sudo cp /tmp/iwlwifi-4965-2.ucode /lib/firmware/2.6.24-20-generic 4. Now, the backports module will work (I was lazy so did a reboot) -- iwl4965 broken in backports-modules 2.6.24-20.21 ucode not loadiing https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/254344 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
