I've been using 0.9.14.9 version with the 2.6.11-1.1369 kernel for 3
months no problems. I upgarded to the 2.6.15-1.1833 kernel a couple of
days ago and noticed when transferring files locally that I get this error
: "ath0: hardware error; ressetting" continuously. Things seem to
transfer just fine so it's not fatal but it never happened before. I went
ahead and updated to the trunk rebuilt and installed madwifi and the same
thing happened.
Here's an excerpt from the syslog:
