At the moment, the madwifi-ng drivers compiled for this machine oops
out. It's not RT's fault - in fact the 2.6.15 non-rt kernel just hangs
completely a few seconds into accessing the madwifi card. The machine
survives a bit longer and prints out a reasonable error message when
compiled for RT and CONFIG_DEBUG_DEADLOCKS. I have some hope now that
the mutex code is in 2.6.16 that it will get easier to track down the
problem with madwifi.
Please, when posting a report like this, be sure to mention if you are
using any proprietary kernel modules, otherwise it's impossible to
interpret!
