Is there anything in dmesg relevant to this?

Could you attach the boot logs from 2.6.38 and 2.6.40-4?

Remove swcrypto50=1 from /etc/modprobe.d/* . You may try not use this option or use swcrypto=1   .

Comment 6 lionghostshop 2011-08-12 15:57:04 UTC
It works. Thank you. But any patch for other users?

Comment 7 Stanislaw Gruszka 2011-08-13 21:07:43 UTC
I did not check, but I don't think we have swcrypto50=1 as default (if so bug report should be reopened for module-init-tools). Seems you added that option and forgot about that :-) , swcrypto50 is now removed from iwlwifi driver hence module did not load.
