I wonder what the common parts of our setups are, wpa_supplicant for sure, "device wlan" is also used by both, relevant modules: 4 1 0xc0b54000 6f04 wlan_ccmp.ko 5 1 0xc0b5b000 40c4 wlan_tkip.ko 6 1 0xc0b60000 1bac wlan_xauth.ko 7 1 0xc0b62000 c6d8 if_ral.ko Otherwise, I have a fairly generic kernel, no fancy -O2 tricks or other make.conf madness, just "CPUTYPE?= athlon-xp". I presume Søren is using an Intel processor ;-) This is my kernel configuration, pretty unexciting. I've forced ral to be a module so I can play with the ndisulator, but it doesn't work nearly as well as ral(4). include GENERIC ident SIGMA device atapicam options ATA_STATIC_ID #Static device numbering nooptions WITNESS nooptions INVARIANTS options HZ=250 options EXT2FS device pf # required device pflog # optional device pfsync # optional nodevice ral -- Matthias Andree
