Random monkey approach ;-) I noticed it was slow and saw that it was due to some weird shit from the kernel Makefile.lib being executed when it shouldn't be. Since I have the compat *result* in git, I could easily see the diff between the old compat.git/compat-wireless.git and the new versions. And then I basically tried to identify the changes that caused this problem, my best guess was that it had to be the Makefile so I gradually changed that back to the previous version until the problem went away ... and then identified which changes were responsible. johannes -- 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
