Dear Luis, I've compiled successfully with compat-wireless-2009-11-13 version. Also, modprobe command has been passed successfully. But, when configuring with "ifconfig", it shows the following kernel message and then totally shut down, resulting in reboot. ========================================== ... <7>[ 181.995318] ath: tx chmask: 1, rx chmask: 1 <7>[ 181.995328] ath: BSS Changed PREAMBLE 0 <7>[ 181.995335] ath: BSS Changed CTS PROT 0 <1>[ 181.998952] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 00000004 <1>[ 181.999118] IP: [<c0435401>] skb_dequeue+0x41/0x70 <4>[ 181.999231] *pde = 00000000 <0>[ 181.999326] Oops: 0002 [#1] SMP <0>[ 181.999456] last sysfs file: /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1c.2/0000:03:00.0/net/wlan1/type <4>[ 181.999548] Modules linked in: ath9k ath9k_common mac80211 ath9k_hw ath cfg80211 rfkill_backport led_class lp parport snd_hda_codec_realtek arc4 ecb snd_hda_intel nls_cp437 snd_hda_codec cifs snd_hwdep iTCO_wdt iTCO_vendor_support uvcvideo snd_pcm snd_timer snd soundcore intel_agp video videodev v4l1_compat pcspkr snd_page_alloc agpgart output r8169 mii [last unloaded: led_class] <4>[ 182.001009] <4>[ 182.001070] Pid: 2745, comm: phy1 Not tainted (2.6.30-02063009-generic #02063009) M1022E <4>[ 182.001161] EIP: 0060:[<c0435401>] EFLAGS: 00010046 CPU: 0 <4>[ 182.001231] EIP is at skb_dequeue+0x41/0x70 <4>[ 182.001296] EAX: f5ed73c0 EBX: f5ed73c0 ECX: 00000296 EDX: 00000000 <4>[ 182.001366] ESI: f6438624 EDI: f6438630 EBP: f5ed5e54 ESP: f5ed5e48 <4>[ 182.001436] DS: 007b ES: 007b FS: 00d8 GS: 0000 SS: 0068 <0>[ 182.001506] Process phy1 (pid: 2745, ti=f5ed4000 task=f6b5d710 task.ti=f5ed4000) <0>[ 182.001592] Stack: <4>[ 182.001649] 00000078 f5ed73c0 00000000 f5ed5f70 f89a9906 f5ed73e0 f5ed5ed4 00000001 <0>[ 182.001958] f5ed5f0c f5ed5ed8 c180a018 000007fb f6438614 f6438624 f6438380 f5ed73c0 <0>[ 182.002352] f5ed73e0 f694a020 f6438646 f6438640 00000039 f6b5d710 5fbf5b76 0000002a <0>[ 182.002793] Call Trace: <0>[ 182.002825] [<f89a9906>] ? ieee80211_ibss_work+0xc6/0xbc0 [mac80211] <0>[ 182.002825] [<c013239b>] ? update_curr+0xeb/0x160 <0>[ 182.002825] [<c014c528>] ? run_workqueue+0x68/0x120 <0>[ 182.002825] [<f89a9840>] ? ieee80211_ibss_work+0x0/0xbc0 [mac80211] <0>[ 182.002825] [<c014cb98>] ? worker_thread+0x88/0xe0 <0>[ 182.002825] [<c0150190>] ? autoremove_wake_function+0x0/0x40 <0>[ 182.002825] [<c014cb10>] ? worker_thread+0x0/0xe0 <0>[ 182.002825] [<c014fe0c>] ? kthread+0x4c/0x80 <0>[ 182.002825] [<c014fdc0>] ? kthread+0x0/0x80 <0>[ 182.002825] [<c01039e7>] ? kernel_thread_helper+0x7/0x10 <0>[ 182.002825] Code: 1c 24 e8 e3 ba 0d 00 8b 1e 39 de 89 c1 74 3b 85 db 74 1b 83 6e 08 01 8b 13 8b 43 04 c7 03 00 00 00 00 c7 43 04 00 00 00 00 89 10 <89> 42 04 89 f8 89 ca e8 b3 bc 0d 00 89 d8 8b 1c 24 8b 74 24 04 <0>[ 182.002825] EIP: [<c0435401>] skb_dequeue+0x41/0x70 SS:ESP 0068:f5ed5e48 <0>[ 182.002825] CR2: 0000000000000004 <4>[ 182.002825] ---[ end trace 166af52a3b602faa ]--- -- Regards, Jinsung Lee -- -----Original Message----- From: Luis R.
