I have what seems to be the same network hardware, so I did what you |
| 10 |
said and duly found an error. I hadn't had any obvious network |
| 11 |
performance problems but I emerged linux-firmware anyway. |

After the next reboot (without any firmware loading errors) kmail |
| 14 |
couldn't send any e-mails, complaining each time that it was unable to |
| 15 |
create an SMTP packet (I think that's what it said). |

|

So I removed linux-firmware, rebooted and got kmail back. |
