Hello linux-wireless list!

Is there really no one with an idea? Is there no one among the developers, who is interested in this bug, if it is a bug?

I'm starting to lose my hope...

Hello linux-wireless list!

I am using a Sparklan WPEA-166G/W with Chipset AR5BXB63 Rev. 11 (it's a MiniPCI-card) in an embedded X86-System (Pipal 2140U, Intel ATOM processor). It's running voyage-0.6.5, which essentially is a Debian Lenny System.

I am running kernel 2.6.33.9-rt31:

demo00000001:~# uname -a
Linux SSB_wlan-demo00000001 2.6.33.9-rt31-atom-ssb #1 PREEMPT RT Mon May 9 18:25:28 CEST 2011 i686 GNU/Linux

I installed the compat-wireless drivers version 2.6.38.2-2 ( http://www.orbit-lab.org/kernel/compat-wireless-2.6-stable/v2.6.38/compat-wireless-2.6.38.2-2.tar.bz2 ) and installed everything I need according to this webpage: http://acx100.erley.org/stable.html

Once issueing modprobe ath5k, putting the interface up and waiting for ~30sec, I get a kernel panic. Could this be a bug or am I doing something wrong?

The error only occurrs after putting the interface up. If I don't do so, the error won't be there.

Here is some output from the machine:
