Hi, I have D-LINK DWA-547 PCI card on my Gentoo based PC. I'm using kernel 2.31.r8 with the latest drivers from the linux wireless site. I have the following error from the kernel : Nov 30 22:27:04 plamenvasilev kernel: [ 493.171844] ------------[ cut here ]------------ Nov 30 22:27:04 plamenvasilev kernel: [ 493.171952] WARNING: at /root/compat-wireless-2.6.31-rc7/net/mac80211/tx.c:1251 ieee80211_tx+0x5b/0x1ae [mac80211]() Nov 30 22:27:04 plamenvasilev kernel: [ 493.171960] Hardware name: Deskpro Nov 30 22:27:04 plamenvasilev kernel: [ 493.171965] Modules linked in: xt_state xt_TCPMSS xt_comment iptable_raw pppoe pppox ath9k mac80211 ath cfg80211 Nov 30 22:27:04 plamenvasilev kernel: [ 493.171991] Pid: 0, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.31-gentoo-r6 #11 Nov 30 22:27:04 plamenvasilev kernel: [ 493.171997] Call Trace: Nov 30 22:27:04 plamenvasilev kernel: [ 493.172026] [<c102f339>] warn_slowpath_common+0x60/0x90 Nov 30 22:27:04 plamenvasilev kernel: [ 493.172036] [<c102f376>] warn_slowpath_null+0xd/0x10 Nov 30 22:27:04 plamenvasilev kernel: [ 493.172069] [<e0840765>] ieee80211_tx+0x5b/0x1ae [mac80211] Nov 30 22:27:04 plamenvasilev kernel: [ 493.172089] [<c13c815b>] ?
