Ok. The problem is that stlc45xx/p54spi requires us to send a null frame every time we enable power save and that's causing problems, at least that's my current theory. So I need to solve this somehow, I need to think this more. But can we still apply these patches? Because b43 doesn't support power save at all, and ath9k with dynamic power save disabled was already broken before my patches, I consider these patches as a step forward. And I would like to go forward one small step at a time, maintaining huge patches myself until all issues are fixed is quite difficult. -- Kalle Valo -- 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
