Lucent IEEE 802.11b - busy bit won't clear

[Markku Kokko]

Hi everyone

I have this Wave LAN card:

May  7 19:38:36 hostname /kernel: pccard: card inserted, slot 0
May  7 19:38:42 hostname pccardd[46]: Card "Lucent
Technologies"("WaveLAN/IEEE") [Version 01.01] [] matched "Lucent
Technologies" ("WaveLAN/IEEE") [(null)] [(null)]
May  7 19:38:47 hostname /kernel: wi0 at port 0x240-0x27f irq 3 slot 0
on pccard0
May  7 19:38:47 hostname /kernel: wi0: 802.11 address: 00:60:1d:03:25:6f
May  7 19:38:47 hostname /kernel: wi0: using Lucent Technologies,
WaveLAN/IEEE
May  7 19:38:47 hostname /kernel: wi0: Lucent Firmware: Station 8.10.01
May  7 19:38:47 hostname pccardd[46]: wi0: Lucent Technologies
(WaveLAN/IEEE) inserted.

This is running in my FreeBSD box as an AP.

Every now and then the card goes wild and throws errors at me.
It also hangs the whole computer for a while, goes very laggy.

The errors I get are, and a lot of those:

wi0: watchdog timeout
wi0: wi_cmd: busy bit won't clear.
wi0: wi_cmd: busy bit won't clear.
wi0: wi_cmd: busy bit won't clear.
wi0: wi_cmd: busy bit won't clear.
wi0: init failed

and so on..

I've seen some talk about a patch long time ago that should fix this
problem, but I can't seem to find that patch anywhere.
Is there a patch and anyone that might know where to find it, how to
apply it?

Any other suggestions are very welcome.

If you need more info, I'll send it to you.
Please reply to me too, as I am not a member of this mailing list.
