Hello,

I installed the Debian 8.3 (32 bits) into my Desktop PC "Dell Inspriron 
| 6400" by using the DVD "Debian 8.3 Jessie Version 32 bits Supplément 
gratuit ...

I was required to load the microcode file "iwlwifi-3945-2.ucode" by 
using DVD ...
I refused to load the microcode file because this one was not included 
the DVD ...

The installation of the distribution proceeded without any problem ... 
(:-D )

_*BUT ... yes ... BUT :*_

when I shutdown the PC and I power on this one, *I lost the control of 
my PC* (>:o ) because a message was continuously displayed on the 
terminal of my PC : this message referenced the name of the microcode 
file "iwlwifi-3945-2.ucode" ...

It was impossible to stop the display !!!... Only one solution not good 
: _/*POWER DOWN the PC by using the power off switch !!!...*/_ (:'( )
Not very good for the hard disk !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.................

I make a new installation with the microcode file "iwlwifi-3945-2.ucode" 
loaded into an USB key ...

/Now my PC is running very well and I am happy to have this distribution 
.../

_*BUT ... yes ... BUT (again) :*_

PLEASE : should be possible for you to fix the problem (8-) ) described 
above to avoid a *"Primitive" power down* of a PC if people cannot load 
the microcode file "iwlwifi-3945-2.ucode" ???

Thank you very much to take in account my request. (:-) )

Best regards from France. (;-) )

Maurice RAUCY

This is a user mailing list, not a development team list. Not likely anyone
here is going to fix the problem.

I think you should file a bug report using the reportbug tool -- the main
question is against which package should you file it. I'd suggest either
the package containing the firmware, the package containing the driver, or
maybe a package for the installer if there is such a thing. Perhaps other
members of this list can make a better suggestion of which package the bug
should be filed against.

Mark
