Subject: reducing the priority of orinoco.c link status messages
Date: Mon, 29 Dec 2008 17:21:06 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20081229172106.e680ccf1.michael.s.gilbert@gmail.com> (raw)

hello, i am at a location where a nearby wireless router comes in and out of
range, so i get a ton of "eth2: New link status: AP Out of Range (0004)" 
and "eth2: New link status: AP In Range (0005)" messages on the active 
terminal.  this makes it difficult to work (especially in vi).

i've found that orinoco.c contains the code that prints these messages.  would it be possible/reasonable to use the KERN_DEBUG or lower printk level instead of KERN_INFO for this specific information?

this problem was also submitted to debian's bts, see [1].

please cc me on any replies as i am not subscribed to this list.  thank you.

mike
