> See www.linuxtr.net for the latest greatest set of bugs. Generally
|
|
speaking the biggest problem that I've seen (with ibmtr) is that
|
|
if you pull your connection from the wall the 2.0.x series of
|
|
kernels would generally not recover.
|
|
</P
|
|
><P
|
|
> This has been fixed in the latest version of ibmtr and the driver
|
|
should now recognize when the link cable has been detached.
|

</P

|
|
> There are some laptops that don't want to work with the Olympic Cardbus
|
|
adapter, for some reason the driver never sees the open interrupt from the
|
|
card. I don't think this is a problem with the driver, but with the Cardbus
|
|
subsystem, for some people this problem has simply gone away with a newer
|
|
kernel and I personally have never seen it on the laptops I've used in the
|
|
development of the driver (Sony Vaio Z505 and Dell Latitude CPx500).
