Atheros guys themselves recommend removing and re-inserting the driver stack as the way to get the WLAN device recognized again after depower. ~ Yes, that's the vendor recommendation. I believe it too, because I actually implemented the power switching stuff and found that WLAN was never subsequently recognized after powering it, and went and asked the Atheros guys. So... unless we: ~ - fix the Atheros stack, or, ~ - throw out the Atheros SDIO stack, which there is some little hope about, and the mainline one acts better modprobe-cycling the existing stack is the way forward, and something we can do to improve things today. - -Andy -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkjSZf8ACgkQOjLpvpq7dMr+gQCeNuc6FlWFALexe+3DDDOy1rCF rHIAn2ArSrKshVnxujIJmpUXZ4cXgMfx =q4L4 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
