In order to get wireless N working on my laptop I installed Suse 11.0, and the latest kernel: 2.6.25.10. Seemed to be going ok, but two nights in a row the wireless link has gone down in the middle of the night. The second time I restarted the network and after "networkmanager" came up the system slowed, locked up and I had to hard restart it. The log contained: Jul 9 00:26:09 bilbo smartd[2950]: Device: /dev/sda, SMART Usage Attribute: 191 G-Sense_Error_Rate changed from 98 to 100 Jul 9 00:30:50 bilbo kernel: wlan0: RX deauthentication from 00:1c:f0:f7:5a:ab (reason=6) Jul 9 00:30:50 bilbo kernel: wlan0: deauthenticated Jul 9 00:30:51 bilbo kernel: wlan0: authenticate with AP 00:1c:f0:f7:5a:ab Jul 9 00:30:51 bilbo kernel: wlan0: RX authentication from 00:1c:f0:f7:5a:ab (alg=0 transaction=2 status=0) Jul 9 00:30:51 bilbo kernel: wlan0: authenticated Jul 9 00:30:51 bilbo kernel: wlan0: associate with AP 00:1c:f0:f7:5a:ab Jul 9 00:30:51 bilbo kernel: wlan0: RX ReassocResp from 00:1c:f0:f7:5a:ab (capab=0x431 status=0 aid=1) Jul 9 00:30:51 bilbo kernel: wlan0: associated Jul 9 00:30:51 bilbo kernel: wlan0: switched to short barker preamble (BSSID=00:1c:f0:f7:5a:ab) Jul 9 00:30:51 bilbo kernel: wlan0 (WE) : Wireless Event too big (320) Jul 9 00:31:01 bilbo kernel: wlan0: disassociate(reason=3) Jul 9 00:31:01 bilbo kernel: wlan0: RX deauthentication from 00:1c:f0:f7:5a:ab (reason=1) Jul 9 00:31:01 bilbo kernel: wlan0: deauthenticated Jul 9 00:31:01 bilbo kernel: iwl4965: Error sending REPLY_RXON_ASSOC: Already sending a host command Jul 9 00:31:02 bilbo kernel: wlan0: authenticate with AP 00:1c:f0:f7:5a:ab Jul 9 00:31:02 bilbo kernel: wlan0: RX authentication from 00:1c:f0:f7:5a:ab (alg=0 transaction=2 status=0) Jul 9 00:31:02 bilbo kernel: wlan0: authenticated Jul 9 00:31:02 bilbo kernel: wlan0: associate with AP 00:1c:f0:f7:5a:ab Jul 9 00:31:02 bilbo kernel: wlan0: RX ReassocResp from 00:1c:f0:f7:5a:ab (capab=0x431 status=0 aid=1) Jul 9 00:31:02 bilbo kernel: wlan0: associated Jul 9 00:31:02 bilbo kernel: wlan0: switched to short barker preamble (BSSID=00:1c:f0:f7:5a:ab) Jul 9 00:31:02 bilbo kernel: wlan0 (WE) : Wireless Event too big (320) Jul 9 00:31:05 bilbo dhclient: caught deadly SIGTERM Jul 9 00:31:05 bilbo dhclient: could not restore resolv.conf: No such file or directory Jul 9 00:31:05 bilbo kernel: wlan0: disassociate(reason=3) Jul 9 00:31:05 bilbo kernel: wlan0: RX deauthentication from 00:1c:f0:f7:5a:ab (reason=1) Jul 9 00:31:05 bilbo kernel: wlan0: deauthenticated Jul 9 00:31:05 bilbo avahi-daemon[2678]: Withdrawing address record for 192.168.10.34 on wlan0.
