It has some critical fixes for ath9k. > Downloaded and installed, I had done a git-pull a few hours before and it was not there:) I set up my system with NX running and was waiting to be up 2hours. Unfortunately it only made 1:50. Still this is bundles better than the 10mins I was getting. Some observations: 1) wpa_supplicant no longer chews up cpu/mem. It started and then did nothing from then on. It used to be in the top 5 on htop. 2) I used to get a huge number of receive errors This is what I started with Errors :3708 After an hour I had Errors :3746 3) Towards the end the memory usage was creeping, slightly, up but no where near the swap file. As suggested by others I did have a console running, but I was monitoring htop(to see if it started to use the swap) when it went. So I have no further diagnostics. When I did the compile it came up and asked me if I wanted the new diagnostic facility for the driver and I just pressed enter. Happy to go back and recompile(or can I turn it on). If I turn it on do you have a methodology to use it?
