Comment (by [EMAIL PROTECTED]):
Thanks to Sam Leffler to provide a new HAL - i tried r1605 with hal
0.9.17.0. It worked for 2 minutes, allowing me to successfully scan the
wireless environment and configure ath0, but it seems that after a certain
amount of irq-stressing it dies. Short after inserting the card, there is
the message "wifi0: ath_chan_set: unable to reset channel 6 (2437Mhz)
flags 0xc0 'Hardware didn't respond as expected' (HAL status 3)". Then, as
I said, two minutes work, than oops. I included dmesg and oops as files...
