The kernal in this live boot is 4.15.x and uses the same firmware build as my FC install. I'm also using a "Intel Corporation Centrino Ultimate-N 6300 (rev 3e)" card and it's working perfectly with 5.3.0-rc4-wt here. (And with most wireless-testing kernels for the last years, too..) Now there was one noteworthy bug in the last year we handled on the mailing list: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-wireless/87k1rk1af5.fsf@kamboji.qca.qualcomm.com/ But then this was a null pointer and does not match to what you observe. (And that really should be fixed in any 5.2 kernel...) I'm using a Gentoo ~amd64 system and wpa_supplicant more or less tracking git upstream and the wireless-testing kernels with the same firmware as you. So whatever it is, it's not affecting me. I would suggest to try a vanilla 5.2 kernel and maybe also an updated wpa_supplicant version next... Alexander
