SubjectRe: Disassociating atheros wlan with 2.6.31
Hi,

Did a bisect or more exactly tried to do a bisect. Ive managed to bisect myself
into a deadend so far (must have marked good in wrong place). The disassociation happens
at seemingly regular intervalls but once I started bisecting it started
to be more irregular. Perhaps it was simply due to me not being able
to user internet (and share) since my 3G modem oopsed all the time.
Suspecting its load sensitive.

Anyhow heres what I got so far. The bad versions should be correct
while the good versions might not be. Reason being that I didnt wait
long enough for the disassociation to appear and thus faulty marking
something as good.
Using the bad should however narrow it down somewhat. From what
I can see between my last good and bad is only non-related stuff,
so must be atleast one "good" mistake in there.
