Hi
I have just installed linux suse 11 on my HP pavilion dv5 1070ee which have Intel® PRO/Wireless 4965AGN wireless device.
I have installed iwl4965GN but still not visibile to the system.
I hope someone can help me with this as soon as possible.
You installed driver through Yast right? I have the same card on similar machine and Yast shows that iwl4965-ucode package is installed and everything works fine. Also what is the output of the command lspci -k?
yes, i installed it through yast

Waiting your reply…
You don’t have a 4965 you have a 5100.
linux-nocz:/home/don # lspci |grep 4965

Any idea how to get the 5100 to work?
How did you know that i have 5100 ???!!!
In my laptop specification you can see that i have “Intel® PRO/Wireless 4965AGN”
that is what was written in the laptop specifications and you will find it on this LINK

I have the older 4965 so i don’t know how to configure your
card, but if you search you will find people that have the
same card and have it working.
This link talks about what kernel you need for the 5100 or
the 5300.

Hello Sherfchan,
I have just posted a detailed solution in a spanish forum. Give me some time to translate it. In the meantime you can check the forum where i learnt how to solve this, and a real expert posted the key matters.
[ubuntu] Does ubuntu supports Intel WiFi Link 5300 (AGN) network card? - Page 3 - Ubuntu Forums](http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=903240&page=3)
