I recently updated my kernel to 2.6.31.6-libre1 with apt-get dist-upgrade and
installed the new rtl8187 wifi driver as instructed on the gnewsense to mips
wiki page.
Wireless doesn't start at boot, which I can fix, but I am having connection
problems and intermittent timeout errors.
This occurs with both the internet connection and the connection with my nfs
server, while streaming music or videos and I experience freezes for a couple
of seconds. I am using WPA2 encryption with aes.
I had the same problem with rmslinuxforyou kernel a couple of months ago.
My /var/log/messages shows the timeout:
