[PATCH v2 2.6.33] rt2x00: Disable powersaving for rt61pci and rt2800pci.

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



We've had many reports of rt61pci failures with powersaving enabled.
Therefore, as a stop-gap measure, disable powersaving of the rt61pci
until we have found a proper solution.
Also disable powersaving on rt2800pci as it most probably will show
the same problem.

John, this is an urgent fix for 2.6.33.

v2:
- Handled feedback from Ivo:
	- Only disable powersaving by default, not permanent.
	- Also apply to rt2800pci.
