freezing with kernel 2.6.26
Hello all, i have big problems with the orinoco usb-card on 2.6.26-Kernels. The system freeze, so that you have to use the reset-button, or in some less times it continues with segmentation faults. I can't produce the error. It just happen after some seconds or minutes after the orinoco card is switched on. During the installation with just a minimal system without X the card runs for hours without problems (during the installation of the rest of the system), so it seems to have to do with a conflicts to some oter stuff. I used the rev. 1300 of orinoco_usb I use the orinoco card some times with another computer (eeepc) on wich also runs the 2.6.26-Kernel, but there are no problems at all. I went now back to the old-stable kernel 2.6.18 and the rev. 1273 to avoid the problems, but I want to report the problem here. Regards. Here is what said dmesg, when the error happend without freezing the whole computer: [ 991.876002] usb 4-2: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 4 [ 992.042274] usb 4-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice [ 992.044282] firmware: requesting orinoco_ezusb_fw [ 992.515196] eth1: Hardware identity 0001:0004:0005:0000 [ 992.517199] eth1: Station identity 001f:0001:0008:0048 [ 992.517202] eth1: Firmware determined as Lucent/Agere 8.72 [ 992.517204] eth1: Ad-hoc demo mode supported [ 992.517206] eth1: IEEE standard IBSS ad-hoc mode supported(Continue reading)
