Hello, today I found a minute to test the iwn driver.
Unfortunately it crashes wit the follwoing (regaardless wether I loaded
iwn1000fw.ko):

iwn0: <Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 1000> mem 0xd2500000-0xd2501fff irq 19 at
device 0.0 on pci2
iwn0: MIMO 1T2R, , address 00:00:00:00:00:00
panic: ieee80211_get_ratetable: no rate table for channel; freq 0 flags 0x0

cpuid = 1
Uptime: 37s
Physical memory: 2990 MB
Dumping 91 MB: 76 60 44 28 12

Tell me if I can help with testing.

Thanks,

-Harry
