      I just upgraded to today's 2.2RC snapshot. Suddenly I'm getting these warnings at startup:

      Dec 11 18:42:06 php: rc.bootup: Cloning new wireless interface ath0_wlan0
      Dec 11 18:42:06 kernel: done.
      Dec 11 18:42:07 kernel: done.
      Dec 11 18:42:07 kernel: ath0: ath_reset_grablock: didn't finish after 10 iterations
      Dec 11 18:42:07 kernel: ath0: ath_reset_grablock: warning, recursive reset path!
      Dec 11 18:42:07 kernel: ath0: ath_reset: concurrent reset! Danger!
      Dec 11 18:42:07 kernel: ath0: ath_reset_grablock: didn't finish after 10 iterations
      Dec 11 18:42:07 kernel: ath0: ath_reset_grablock: warning, recursive reset path!
      Dec 11 18:42:07 kernel: ath0: ath_chan_set: concurrent reset! Danger!

      The hardware in question is an NB-037B (?) wireless mini PCIe card, the CPU an Atom D525 on a Jetway mobo.

      More info available upon request.

        Were you able to get the interface up? I had an ath0 wireless interface, and it never showed up.

          It seems to be up. At least I'm getting 'beacon stuck' messages from it:

          Dec 11 21:29:27 kernel: ath0: stuck beacon; resetting (bmiss count 4)

          We use ath0 for our "guest wireless". As we have no guests right now, there's no traffic on it, so no big deal if it's down.
