Subject: rt2500 suspend problems

Hi,

my laptop with rt2500 card won't wake up from suspend-to-RAM. The cause
seems to be the rt2x00 driver. Are there any known issues with this? I
tried 2.6.23-rc4 from wireless-dev head (yesterday), and also an earlier
commit based on 2.6.23-rc3.

(As a separate issue, it seems I cannot even associate to my AP with WEP
with the latest kernel. The syslog says:
Sep 12 07:55:13 better kernel: wlan0: RX WEP frame, but no key set
.)

Here's the lspci line for the WiFi card:

08:02.0 Network controller [0280]: RaLink RT2500 802.11g Cardbus/mini-PCI
[1814:0201] (rev 01)

The system is an LG LE50 Express i386 laptop.

Thanks,

Marcus

At least the following:
- compiling rt2x00 with debug enabled,
- providing the debug messages after a suspend/resume
- provide more information about what is exactly is failing during resume.

No idea, must be a driver bug.

known issue, actually. The driver doesn't set the
IEEE80211_HW_WEP_INCLUDE_IV flag and mac80211 expects it to be set. But
the driver shouldn't be changed, instead the patch "mac80211: rework
hardware crypto flags" should finally be merged. John seems to
hide... :)

Try to use the rt2x00.git repo, available at:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ivd/rt2x00.git
