[ath9k-devel] bug didnt go away.

[Dmitri Seletski]

Hello guys.
Bug didn't go away, patch that Sujith provided didn't really help.
I still have it, tested with two separate "ping -A *" one to ip address 
behind NAT second to my personal router at home.
reply times weren't bad. but after a minute or so computer hangs again.

to prove that i have downloaded fresh version:

no additional output can be done for obvious reasons...

Actually after a fresh reboot please try to go into a TTY by pressing CTRL + ALT + F1,
then log in and then follow these intstructions to ensure Network Manager and wpa_supplicant are killed:

http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Documentation/Reporting_bugs

Then please proceed to associate to your AP, if you need WPA or WPA2 encryption you will need
to manually run wpa_supplicant. Finally ping. My hope is that since you are in a TTY you will
actually see an oops. Please take a picture or write this down.

In the future once the x mode stuff is moved into the kernel we should be able to get oops on
the X server. For now we have to deal with this if your logs do not capture anything.
