Package: iw
Version: 0.9.9-1
Severity: normal
The command 'iw list' appears to loop infintely on my machine. It
will continuously print the info for phy0 until stopped by ^C. This happens
whether the wireless kill switch is enabled or not.
The machine is a Thinkpad Z61t. The interface is an Intel 3945,
driven by the stock iwl3945 driver (not the updated one found at
linuxwireless.org).
The info repeatedly printed by 'iw list' is as follows:
