Description

I'm using a Lenovo Thinkad X200s with Intel Ultimate N WiFi Link 5300.

On Dragonfly BSD 3.6.2 it worked perfectly without any errors (and exactly the same configuration). Since 3.7.X and the actual testes 3.8.0RC my WiFi decive throws the following error on every try to load it (also over manual /etc/rc.d/netif restart):

  1. dmesg.boot (with rc_debug enabled) ###

I just load 'iwn5000fw_load="YES"' over loader.conf, because the other modules (if_iwn.ko, wlan_ccmp.ko, wlan_tkip.ko) are loaded by the generic kernel. This is what I've loaded, too:

In IRC at #dragonflybsd on EFNet @profmakx wrote: "I have iwn4965 and iwn6000, both work".

I've just tested (just for fun) to replace all that modules (if_iwn.ko, wlan_ccmp.ko, wlan_tkip.ko, iwn5000fw.ko) one by one and all together with the older one from v3.6.2. The result was exactly the same error.

I've found a FreeBSD issue with parallels:

Thanks in advance for any help!
