Well, the compilation on the last two -rcs of 2.6.8 works indeed.
Unfortunately, the new releases severely break stability of my setup.
With v1.66 and the latest inf/sys for my AR5211 device I could get,
everything works rock solid (2.4.xx naturally). Alas, when installing
v2.0x kernel 2.6.8-rcx freezes immediately. Thus I am unable to create a
diagnostic dump. 2.4.27 works slightly better; freezes occur more seldom
and the driver needs to be reloaded after suspend/resume (which was not
necessary with v1.66).

v1.66 works perfectly well! However, I need a stable 2.6 setup. Is it
possible to enhance v1.66 so that it builds under linux 2.6? Please let
me know how I can give you more information at least with respect to the
2.6 freeze issue.
