Hi, I downloaded those bits and pieces, and I used athdebug to set the debug variable.
Will try to give you all the info I have so far, including some new bits thats must be due to the debugging being enabled. When if_ath is loaded... ath0: <Atheros 5212> mem 0x88010000-0x08801ffff irq 4 at device 0.0 on cardbus0 ath0: tx_proc_q01234= ath0: MAC Address: <MY MAC ADDRESS> ath0: mac 7.9 phy 4.5 radio 5.6 Having twiddled that debug variable, upon ifconfig ath0 up i get ath_init: if_flags 0x8803 ath_stop_no_pwchg: invalid 0 if_flags 0x8803 now ifconfig ath0 down gives ath_stop_no_pwchg: invalid 0 if_flags 0x8842 I have also seen an invalid if_flags message with the number as 0x8802 i think, but cant remeber exactly how i triggered it (i think it was after the device timeouts running the supplicant. I am probably being numb, but what other messages should i have been seeing? (I havent really ever debugged anything like this, so I apologise for taking teeny tiny steps). I guess that means interrupts may not be getting through...... Also, running systat -vmstat i dont see an irq4 or ath0 entry...but i really am not sure if that was something that it helps to check. Cheers, Alex J Burke.
