X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 25 Jan 2011 00:31:33 -0000 Recently I tried to connect to the same AP described in the following thread: http://www.mail-archive.com/freebsd-questions@freebsd.org/msg238799.html It worked relatively well until now. Whenever I try to use ifconfig, wpa_supplicant, dhclient, or any related tool on the wlan0 interface it results in a system freeze. The only way to get out of this is to hard reset the computer - but I do not see the typical backtrace associated with a panic (even when X is not running). What debugging information is needed to help solve the problem? -- Eitan Adler
