Bug Description
I have been experiencing intermittent freezing of transmission by my Intel ipw2100 WiFi with linux kernel.
It looks like linux-image-
To post a comment you must log in.
More information about freezing: there are 2 different types of messages in syslog:
1. kernel: [ 856.828000] ipw2100: Fatal interrupt. Scheduling firmware restart.
2. kernel: [ 8556.332000] NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth1: transmit timed out
The first one is well known and I thought that it is inevitable.
Second one sometimes follows the freezing without the first message and after the second message transmission is restored.
I was happy with 2.6.20-16.31 because it fixed both problems, but 2.6.20-16.32 returned them back.
