[ATrpms-users] followup tp ipw3945 problem

[Brian Millett]

  I admit I must be smoking something bad.  I ad posted and put people
through the hoops about ieee8011 being the problem for ipw3945 kernel
oops.  Well, I was wrong and I apologize for that.  I happened again
with the default ieee8011.

I filed a bug report here:
http://bughost.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1248

Here is the kernel oops

 ipw3945: Microcode SW error detected.  Restarting.
 ipw3945: request scan called when driver not ready.
