Hello!

I use a Fritz! WLAN N stick and the ar9170usb driver, but with compat-wireless 
from 2009-10-28 I get no USB connection LED burning...

compat-wireless 2009-09-29 was okay, it has enabled both LEDs. So I wonder, is 
it safe to use older compat-wireless-2009-09-29?

I use Linux kernel 2.6.32-rc5-git3 on openSUSE 11.1

Thanx
Malte

Forget it! It was a wpa_supplicant issue. Some weird setup, rebooting and now 
everything is fine. Wpa_supplicant tried to started twice, bad setup on my 
machine.

Does it work? What would be unsafe?

Is there a reason that you need compat-wireless with 2.6.32-rc5-git3?
Most of the changes in compat-wireless are already in 2.6.32-rc3.

As long as you are using a git kernel, you ought to use git to
download the kernel from Linville's wireless-testing git tree. That
way, you will always have what is in the latest wireless-testing. In
addition, your reports of problems will be for the current state and
you can help with the debugging.
