[PATCH] orinoco.c rate limit lost information frame message

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Rate limit a (apparently) harmless warning in orinoco.c

(My laptop remained connected with active X applications running over
ssh while this message was hitting every second, since I patched my
driver to include this the problem hasn't recurred.)
