Public bug reported: I recently setup my Ubuntu 10.04 server installation as a wired/wireless router. My wireless card uses the rt61pci driver. Now, my kern.log and syslog are getting spammed with the following message: "ieee80211_tx_status: headroom too small". The log files grow at a rate of about 50MB per day.
This link seemingly describes my exact issue and references a couple of patches that resolve the issue: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/62072/ ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04 Package: linux-image-2.6.32-24-server 2.6.32-24.42 Regression: No Reproducible: Yes ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.32-24.42-server 2.6.32.15+drm33.5 Uname: Linux 2.6.32-24-server x86_64 AlsaDevices: Error: command ['ls', '-l', '/dev/snd/'] failed with exit code 2: ls: cannot access /dev/snd/: No such file or directory AplayDevices: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory Architecture: amd64 ArecordDevices: Error: [Errno 2] No such file or directory Date: Wed Sep 15 00:36:43 2010 Lsusb: Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub MachineType: ASUSTek Computer INC.
