I think I'll pass on that, since Squeeze will come along one of these days.
When I started this thread, my wireless on Linux crashed so often it
was unbearable! After this thread, and people had given me good
ideas, it ran for days! Go figger.
ANYWAY, it finally crashed again. I can now confirm, after a crash I
can fix my wireless networking without a reboot, like this:
root@thinkpad:/home/john# modprobe -r airo
root@thinkpad:/home/john# modprobe -a airo
root@thinkpad:/home/john# /etc/init.d/networking start
My thanks to everybody for the great advice.
John
