Hurrah, thanks for testing. Relevant patches: 7ed85b65ab61 net/wireless: ipw2200: Fix WARN_ON occurring in wiphy_register called by ipw_pci_probe b4050790d0a6 ipw2200: Fix order of device registration e19d8baf8cfc ipw2100: Fix order of device registration aac495a8002b net/wireless: ipw2100: Fix WARN_ON occurring in wiphy_register called by ipw2100_pci_init_one They apply cleanly to 3.2.y, though I haven't tested them. If you'd like instructions for trying a backport, please don't hesitate to ask. Ciao, Jonathan
