Hello,
madwifi-ng (trunk) completely crashes the machine from time to time.
I have a Thinkpad T40p with an integrated WLAN card (17ab:8310).
So far, I could track down this to some skb memory issues (double-free?)
There seems to be a bug in handling this when ATH_CAP_SUPERG_FF=1.
After deactivating it in the code, there were no more crashes (I had to
change some lines to make it compile again.)
Hope that helps,
Christian Kohlschütter
