Re: 3.4-rc5: Oops in run_timer_softirq()

Hi Sedat,
  I still get the Oops with 3.4-rc7 when repeatedly turning on and off wifi device
(Fn+F2). I did download the v6 firmware and placed it manually.

  I did not download the patches. Are they not in 3.4-rc7 yet? And do I need them
if I have the v6 firmware files in /lib/firmware/?
Thanks,
Martin
