Hi all. I've had some non reproducable kernel oopses on my Apple 15" AlPB. There is a SMC2835W wifi card running with the drivers from prism54. Ok, I compiled in the latest ones into the 2.6.3-ben(1|2) kernels and had no problems with the card itself but some kernel oopses. So I figured out the 2.6.2 kernel on my machine, where no oopses happend. Hmm, the difference was in the version of the prism drivers. The 2.6.2 was running with the version of 18.12.2003. Now I have 2.6.3-ben2 and 2.6.4-rc1 out of the box running with the Dec. version. No more oopses. So, I am not a really good hacker, but it must be possible to get big endian drivers work with the ppc-kernel tree of Benjamin Herrenschmidt?
