Comment 5 for bug 297965

My machine just crashed (KERNEL PANIC) while running 2.6.27-11, after using the wireless for a few hours. This is the firs time that I have used the wireless for an extended period of time since installing 2.6.27-11. I'm back on 2.6.27-9 for now. I believe this was caused by the updated ath9k module.

This is the same kind of behavior I found when trying to use an updated ath9k kernel module from compat-wireless (http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Download). Performance is much better but the driver is unstable, I got kernel panic while using the compat-wireless module as well.
