Hi I tested the 3.13.0-29-generic proposed kernel in Trusty with the
indicated firmware :

Worked really great at 90 Mbits Speed reception rate for few hours.

After few hours the connection didn't work anymore and I had to
rmmod/modprobe the module.

I'm tesing on a Clevo W310CZ.

Do we know when the linux firmware package will include the needed
firmware ?
