The former is for

Thanks. How often did the timeouts occur before?

Jonathan-
I've been running the patched kernel for 32 hours now without a timeout. I saw
that one of the patches is using the old madwifi code. A few years back I was
running Fedora with the madwifi driver for my card, and I did not have this
issue at that time.
BTW, I had patched the
Timeouts occurred sporadically, but usually at least several times a day. It
seemed to occur most often when there was noise on the frequency---when other
wifi users would set up near me and connect to the same access point. Usually
around mid-day, I would get a noise timeout every 20

Marking accordingly.
I will send the dmesg output sometime tomorrow (June 7). As far as trying the
other kernels, I will do my best to run them ASAP.

Luckily, it seems the answer is yes from both submitters.
In order of increasing time commitment, here are some ways to help:

Neat. To tie up an old loose end, the -486 kernel should work well
for this model. (In theory it might be faster than the old -686
kernel because the synchronization primitives used to support SMP
