Well, with the change from my original post, the card appears to function somewhat but the cpu gets busy and the whole machine crawls. Note, I didn't make any changes for initvals. I can associate but not for very long. dmesg looks like this: ath5k phy0: Atheros AR5424 chip found (MAC: 0xa3, PHY: 0x61) NET: Registered protocol family 17 ath0: Initial auth_alg=0 ath0: authenticate with AP 00:1a:70:da:a9:cd ath0: RX authentication from 00:1a:70:da:a9:cd (alg=0 transaction=2 status=0) ath0: authenticated ath0: associate with AP 00:1a:70:da:a9:cd ath0: RX AssocResp from 00:1a:70:da:a9:cd (capab=0x411 status=0 aid=2) ath0: associated ath0: switched to long barker preamble (BSSID=00:1a:70:da:a9:cd) ath5k_hw_get_isr: 0x00000020 ath5k_hw_get_isr: 0x00000020 ath5k_hw_get_isr: 0x00000020 ath5k_hw_get_isr: 0x00000020 [repeats a ton] ath0: No ProbeResp from current AP 00:1a:70:da:a9:cd - assume out of range printk: 81 messages suppressed. ath5k_hw_get_isr: 0x00000020 printk: 36 messages suppressed. ath5k_hw_get_isr: 0x00000020 and sometimes: ath5k phy3: noise floor calibration timeout (2462MHz) With debug on these were the resets I was seeing, may be normal but I didn't know: ath5k trace ath5k_hw_stop_tx_dma:1241 ath5k trace ath5k_hw_stop_pcu_recv:2433 ath5k trace ath5k_hw_set_rx_filter:2518 ath5k trace ath5k_hw_stop_rx_dma:1143 ath5k trace ath5k_hw_reset:573 ath5k trace ath5k_hw_get_rf_gain:1349 ath5k trace ath5k_hw_nic_wakeup:290 ath5k trace ath5k_hw_set_power:1058 ath5k trace ath5k_hw_set_power:1058 ath5k trace ath5k_hw_nic_reset:1011 ath5k trace ath5k_hw_txpower:2012 ath5k trace ath5k_hw_get_rate_table:401 ath5k trace ath5k_hw_disable_pspoll:4342 ath5k trace ath5k_hw_set_opmode:2187 ath5k trace ath5k_hw_reset_tx_queue:3173 > Thanx a lot for the feedback ;-) np! -- Bob Copeland %% www.bobcopeland.com - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
