Thanks for your tests! I really need some help now. Does anyone have idea how changing firmware can cause out of memory on host? I try to imagine some reasons... 1) We detect some problem with hw/fw (correctly or not) and go into some infinity recursion 2) Newer firmware does sth differently with DMA, we allocate too much? OK, there is not even point "3" from me. I have no more ideas :| I could check than new vs. old firmware on my only LP-PHY, but how can I check for memory allocated by module? lsmod displays column "size" but I don't think it's about memory. -- Rafał _______________________________________________ b43-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/b43-dev
