=46rom memory I was getting these sort of messages when the svn WiFi driver=
 I=20
was using was in need of serious development.  I guess that you are trying =
to=20
make an unstable device driver work I'm afraid.  I know that it is in the=20
kernel and indeed it could well work fine with some set ups, but yours is=20
probably not one of them.  Have you also tried the forums just in case=20
someone has managed to make the particular device work with this driver?
=2D-=20
