I'm wondering if its something specific to the p54pci driver? I'm using iwlagn (4965) from that package with no problems (so far). Its not clear what version of stable compat-wireless you've tried. Does compat-wireless-2.6.32-rc6 exhibit the same problem? rtg -- Tim Gardner tim.gardner@canonical.com
