Hi all, I run an Ad-hoc network, using a SuSE 11.2 computer, kernel 2.6.32-5.5 from SuSE (probably modifed by them.) If I turn off all the other computers in the network, the ath5k/kernel combination writes 20 times per second to the system log /var/log/messages:

Even without the bug, my log is filled with these. Also, is there any way to set the scan frequency, so that my hard drive doesn't fill when I turn off the other computers?
