After screwing around with this for a day, I finally figured out what is going on. For some reason, it was also loading the acer_wmi module, a driver for a different type of wireless chip, and this was screwing things up. As soon as I did "modprobe -r acer_wmi", then everything worked. I just needed to blacklist this module in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf, and now the Atheros chip is working even after a reboot. --Greg -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
