I just though of one another reason, could you test one more thing for me? Edit drivers/net/wireless/b43/dma.h and change define from value 64 to in the line: #define B43_RXRING_SLOTS 64 Can you get "Out of order TX" much more easily after such a change? -- Rafał -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
