Immediately, users of rt2860/2870 cards began reporting system freezes as soon as the device makes a wireless connection. For NM users, this is soon after login. The only recovery is power off. There is at least one bug report at https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=568446 Do you know any reason for a regression of this nature in the 2.6.31 stable code? I don't recall any similar complaints on the wireless list, but I don't always follow the rt2x00 stuff. Thanks, Larry
