[driverloader] Mandriva 2007 x86_64 Driverloader keeps disconnecting

[Tim Edwards]

Hi,

I'm trying to get driverloader working with Mandriva 2007 x86_64 on my
Acer 5022WLMI laptop. I have set it up, including installing and setting
up dldr_wpa_supplicant and it correctly connects to the AP using WPA and
gets an IP address and I can browse the net with it as expected. However
after about 2 minutes it will disconnect, leave it for 30 secs and it
will reconnect, then after another minute or 2 will disconnect again and
so on. After a couple of times it won't reconnect at all an I have to
click 'Reload' in the driverloader web interface.

I have this card working on a Mandriva 2006 x86 installation on the same
laptop and it doesn't do this - it will stay connected forever without
any hiccups. lspci output:
