Hi, Ivo.

I finally found a x86-64 (little-endian) where I could test the D-Link
stick.

Thanks quite unfortunate. For me, I can't make -rc5 associate with the
AP, which is a regression regarding -rc4. With -rc4, on this x86-64
machine, at least I could associate and everything looked fine, but like
with the iBook, I can't get a dhcp lease from the AP. :-(

(BTW, I think that I can do some sessions of "git bisect" to find which
patch has modified this behavior).

I compiled the kernel with debugfs, like you instructed me and got a
register dump of the kernel on this machine and looking at it, there
seems to have some endianness things going on, but I am not qualified to
say anything about this.

Well, I'm attaching the diff between the regdump from the earlier try on
the iBook and the regdump from this x86-64. I think that some
conclusions may be drawn from it, since it seems to be your domain of
expertise.


Thanks, Rog
