[gobolinux-users] Wireless config and bootsplash troubles

[João Felipe Santos]

I just found on the kernel config file that CONFIG_IWLWIFI is not set. I
can't compile the iwlwifi module recipe (because the "isolated" module does
not compile in .24 kernels), just the iwlwifi-3945-ucode one. I'll try to
recompile kernel with this config var set and will report the results.

Thanks!
