Hi,

compat-wireless hasn't been working for a week or two and it was only
a day or two ago it started building again (on an up to date fedora 11
x86_64). Anyway, I have rtl8187 unload on suspend and it has been
working fine for some months (and still do after I removed
<kernel>/update/*). But I had two crashes on suspend while with the
latest compat-wireless, and that's two out of two occasions. I noticed
that now loading rtl8187 (and mac80211, etc) brings in rfkill_backport
- AFAIK it isn't need on my hardware, but... so I guess my question
is, is anybody experiencing crashes on suspend, newly in the last day
or two?

compat-release - master-2009-07-08-3-g3615cdf
master-tag - master-2009-07-10
git-describe - wireless-testing.git - v2.6.31-rc2-27901-ge59c61b

Also crashes on suspend/resume are rather difficult to diagnose (no
display, no log). How do people normally do anything about this kind
of problem?
