Can you test if you still have that "stop communication" problem, if you pull latest wireless-dev and apply these patches on top of it? http://bu3sch.de/patches/wireless-dev/LATEST/patches/ > works most of the time, but some times (~20%), it will lock up the > network with this error that repeats. > > Message from [EMAIL PROTECTED] at Fri Aug 3 00:55:41 2007 ... > localhost kernel: [19316.256549] unregister_netdevice: waiting for eth1 to > becom > e free. Usage count = 5 Most likely a bug in mac80211. But it _could_ be related to the ieee80211_stop_queues() call we do when stopping the wireless core. I think it's still not race free. But I don't know if that can cause something like this. -- Greetings Michael. _______________________________________________ Bcm43xx-dev mailing list Bcm43xx-dev@lists.berlios.de https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/bcm43xx-dev
