I am using Archlinux on my Acer Extensa 7630EZ and realize that my wireless-device which is an Atheros Communications Inc. AR928X Wireless Network Adapter (PCI-Express) (rev 01) according to lspci works very well using arch-stock kernel 2.6.30 and is not working any longer when using the 2.6.31.1 or 2.6.31.2 kernel from Arch's testing repository. When using the 2.6.30 kernel (wlan is working very well), I get the following dmesg-output: [bernhard@wallaby ~]$ dmesg |grep ath ath9k 0000:05:00.0: enabling device (0000 -> 0002) ath9k 0000:05:00.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 17 ath9k 0000:05:00.0: setting latency timer to 64 phy0: Selected rate control algorithm 'ath9k_rate_control' Registered led device: ath9k-phy0::radio Registered led device: ath9k-phy0::assoc Registered led device: ath9k-phy0::tx Registered led device: ath9k-phy0::rx When upgrading to 2.6.31.x, i receive the following output: [bernhard@wallaby ~]$ dmesg |grep ath ath9k 0000:05:00.0: enabling device (0000 -> 0002) ath9k 0000:05:00.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 17 ath9k 0000:05:00.0: setting latency timer to 64 ath9k 0000:05:00.0: PCI INT A disabled As I see it, the device is recognized and instantly disabled again. The device cannot be brought up too using ifconfig. I am quite clueless what do do aside from reporting the bug here as suggested in the original Arch-bugreport (http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/16413) If any further information is helpful, I will of course happily try to provide it.
