I am having a problem using the iwi driver on my laptop. Basically I would normally setup the network with this command: ifconfig iwi0 inet 10.2.0.3 netmask 255.255.0.0 ssid borderworlds mode 11g channel 3 but that makes the laptop freeze and a hard reset is the only way to get it back to life. By experimenting a little I found that this sequence of commands works: ifconfig iwi0 inet 10.2.0.3 netmask 255.255.0.0 sleep 5 ifconfig iwi0 ssid borderworlds sleep 5 ifconfig iwi0 mode 11g sleep 5 ifconfig iwi0 channel 3 I tried sleep 1 at first but that made the laptop freeze after setting mode 11g. By enabling the software watchdog I can make it panic instead of freezing, but the backtrace I get from the dump looks useless (at least to me). The dmesg is at http://borderworlds.dk/~xi/andorian.dmesg The trace is at http://borderworlds.dk/~xi/andorian.trace I am not sure how to further debug this so any help would be appreciated. I will try the latest RELENG_6 next and see if it makes any difference. -- Christian LaursenReceived on Sun Sep 18 2005 - 06:03:34 UTC
