Best I can tell, I'll need 2.6.30 for the new 5100 firmware, as 2.6.29.4 doesn't seem to care that the newer firmware is present:
root@liberty:~# ls /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-5000-* /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-5000-1.ucode /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-5000-2.ucode
... and from dmesg: iwlagn 0000:03:00.0: firmware: requesting iwlwifi-5000-1.ucode iwlagn loaded firmware version 5.4.1.16
I guess I'll have to wait a bit, as 2.6.30 is off the table for now. No big deal - at least it's fixed, even if not for me yet.
Thanks!
