SubjectRe: Oops with 2.6.24 git when loading iwl3945
[Thomas Tuttle - Tue, Nov 27, 2007 at 03:43:57PM -0500]
| Hey.
| 
| I'm using a git snapshot that gentoo distributed mere hours ago (so I'm
| fairly confident it's current), and I'm getting an Oops when I try to
| load the iwl3945 driver.  I've attached it as plain text.
| 
| Hope this helps,
| 
| Thomas Tuttle

Hi Thomas,
Could you please test the patch?
