The thread at openSUSE is at http://forums.opensuse.org/network-internet/wireless/420589-intel-5300-wifi-minipci-card-asus-g71gx-rx05-bestbuy-3.html Most of the thread is useless as the OP wouldn't supply critical data and persisted in various rants, but on the 3rd page, he finally provided the output of 'dmesg | grep iwl', which was iwlagn: Intel(R) Wireless WiFi Link AGN driver for Linux, 1.3.27ks iwlagn: Copyright(c) 2003-2008 Intel Corporation iwlagn 0000:07:00.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 17 iwlagn 0000:07:00.0: setting latency timer to 64 iwlagn: Detected Intel Wireless WiFi Link 5300AGN REV=0x24 iwlagn: Unsuported EEPROM VER=0x114 < 0x11a CALIB=0x3 < 0x4 iwlagn 0000:07:00.0: PCI INT A disabled iwlagn: probe of 0000:07:00.0 failed with error -22 The OP states that this device came from Best Buy. What is the current scoop on this EEPROM version? Thanks, Larry
