(i) 3.2.21-1 from snapshot produces the gain calibration timeouts. (ii) so does a rebuild of debian patched 3.2.21-3.
Other kernels tried so far in order (we'll use "worked" for functional wifi, and "broke" for calibration timeouts): debian 3.2.0-2 (3.2.20-1) worked debian 3.2.0-3 (3.2.21-3) broke vanilla 3.2.20 worked vanilla 3.2.21 worked snapshot.d.o 3.3.0-rc6 (3.3~rc6-1~experimental.1) worked patched 3.2.y (3.2.25 with previous attached patches) worked debian 3.2.0-3 (3.2.21-3) still broke # got paranoid, tried it again On Tue, Aug 7, 2012 at 1:08 AM, Jonathan Nieder <jrnie...@gmail.com> wrote: > Jesse Rhodes wrote: > > > Well, it's not going to happen when I'm using 3.2.0-2, and it always > > happens on 3.2.0-3 rendering it basically useless for a working system > > Thanks for clarifying.
