Sorry for the late notice; I haven't tried running new kernels on this computer in a long time. When I use 2.6.32 (or indeed 2.6.32-rc1), it works fine up until the point where the wireless card is ifconfig'ed. Then not long afterward (a few seconds to a minute) the system hangs. # lspci -vv -s d.0 00:0d.0 Network controller: RaLink RT2561/RT61 802.11g PCI Subsystem: Linksys WMP54G ver 4.1 Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV+ VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR+ FastB2B- DisINTx- Status: Cap+ 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B- ParErr- DEVSEL=slow >TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- INTx- Latency: 64, Cache Line Size: 64 bytes Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 11 Region 0: Memory at cfff0000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=32K] Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 2 Flags: PMEClk- DSI- D1- D2- AuxCurrent=0mA PME(D0-,D1-,D2-,D3hot-,D3cold-) Status: D0 PME-Enable- DSel=0 DScale=0 PME- Kernel driver in use: rt61pci Kernel modules: rt61pci While the system is hung, Alt-SysRq-keys still work but nothing else shows up when I type (using a VT console, not X). However I don't know what debugging to do or what to look for. Under 2.6.31 everything works okay.
