Hi Norbert,

I am coming back to this old thread, not because it has been solved,

Somehow your mail didn't make it to the lists, not sure why.

but because today I got a funny new message while checking why
everything got stuck again:
        [69588.972126] iwlwifi 0000:06:00.0: fail to flush all tx fifo queues
and after doing
        rfkill block wifi
        sleep 20
        rfkill unblock wifi
I got a kernel warning:

Fun. I don't actually see how this can possibly happen though?!

Maybe this tells you something.

These messages now appear only now and then.

I fixed those recently.

You seem to be on 3.5.0-rc now, is that really no different from 3.4?
