Hi Everybody, I have a problem with ath5k driver, when removing it out of the kernel using "rmmod ath5k" or "modprobe -r ath5k". The System freezes (very fast) without giving any Log-Message. The Interface should be "down". But ath5k is still using mac80211 (as it was reported when trying "modprobe -r mac80211".
Relevant System properties: Debian 4.1.2-21 using 2.6.24-1-686 Kernel and Ubiquiti SuperRange Cardbus Adapter (AR5213 chipset) I got the driver downloading "compat-wireless-2.6.tar.bz2" from linuxwireless.org. It seems that the changes between 2008-06-03 and 2008-07-10 causes the problem. With the ath5k-Version of 2008-06-03 there is no problem. Of course - mac80211 changed between this time too. As I saw with WinMerge there are some changes (in ath5k), that relate to all the LED-functons - like "ath5k_register_led". Is that the problem??? What do you think? Now I'm using the "old" ath5k-Version of 2008-06-03 again. But - maybe anybody can fix this. Ask me if you need further information.
