I just installed an atheros 5212 mini-PCI a/b/g wireless card in my
soekris 4801. Seems to be getting a lot of device timeouts, which,
according to the manpage, "should not happen". I noticed also via top
that the systems was 10% using interrupts and it dropped to 0% when I
downed the interface.
Has anyone else experience similar ?
