I suspect the compat_firmware_class.c code, which is specific to compat-wireless. The way do debug it is to find out what's wrong in get_device_parent and work from there. I suggest trying the latest compat-wireless. I think it might be possible to reproduce the problem on the same kernel version (2.6.31.12) on a PC. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin -- 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
