It's the same bug as before. The user is *not* using 2.6.19-rc2-mm1, but 2.6.19-rc2 : --------------------------------------------------- Linux version 2.6.19-rc2 (root@orion) (gcc version 4.1.1 (Gentoo 4.1.1)) #3 PREEMPT Thu Oct 19 16:04:17 CEST 2006 --------------------------------------------------- The Orinoco fix is in 2.6.19-rc2-mm1, but it is *not* in 2.6.19-rc2. John : the current code is 2.6.19-rc2 is definitely not releasable. Either we back out WE-21, or we fix it, but doing nothing at this point is a receipe for disaster. I submitted to you 3 patches to fix WE-21 in 2.6.19-rc2 : o Orinoco SLAB fix o Other driver slab fix o WE-20 ESSID backward compatibility Those patches were fixing real problems and tested on my side. If those patches are not planned to go in 2.6.19-rc2, I ask again that WE-21 be removed from 2.6.19. Thanks in advance...
