Public bug reported:
Seemed related to other bugs, but this is a new issue. Hardware is a
Thinkpad R51e with Atheros chip:
*-network
description: Wireless interface
product: Atheros AR5001X+ Wireless Network Adapter
vendor: Atheros Communications Inc.
physical id: 2
bus info: p...@0000:04:02.0
logical name: wlan0
version: 01
serial: 00:16:ce:61:40:aa
width: 32 bits
clock: 33MHz
capabilities: pm bus_master cap_list ethernet physical wireless
configuration: broadcast=yes driver=ath5k ip=10.11.12.108 latency=168
maxlatency=28 mingnt=10 multicast=yes wireless=IEEE 802.11bg
resources: irq:22 memory:a0300000-a030ffff
Driver worked fine in 9.10, and on new installation of 10.04. On
upgrading kernel from 2.6.32-21 to 2.6.32-22, problems started to
occur. Initial connection to WPA2 access point is fine on boot up. After
around 1 hour, connection will drop and cannot be re-negotiated.
Restarting network is ineffective. Change to wicd is ineffective.
Rebooting is the only way to get a connection again.
Rebooting into kernel 2.6.32-21 also fixes the problem.
