- iwl4965: iwlwifi-4965-1.ucode firmware file req failed: Reason -2 |

This error indicate a firmware version/filename mismatch. Just rename the |
| 4 |
file to whatever iwlwifi displays in this case: iwlwifi-4965-1.ucode If this |
| 5 |
fails, try an alternate version, perhaps |
| 6 |
net-wireless/iwl4965-ucode-228.57.1.21. |
| 7 |
The above is taken from Gentoo wiki troubleshoot section for iwlwifi |
| 8 |
drivers. Try that in case you haven't already. |
