As I said, it's probable that your hardware (either wireless device or PCI) doesn't work correctly. > Could you please give us some background information regarding this error? Yes - the error refers to the attempt of the driver to turn on the onboard cpu and then read some values from MMIO space. This is the first thing the driver does. It tries for 200 reads/writes, and if there is no positive response by then, it gives up. While the onboard chip is down, it returns 0xffffffff on every read. FWIW I have an old Atheros card which behaves in exactly this manner. So, you can try moving the device to a computer and see if it's the platform or the device. -- Bob Copeland %% www.bobcopeland.com _______________________________________________ ath5k-devel mailing list ath5k-devel@lists.ath5k.org https://lists.ath5k.org/mailman/listinfo/ath5k-devel
