<div>Have you reported your behaviour in a bug report? I've found it on Fedora 16 as well (different hardware: iwl3945 & hp_wmi) so I'd point to your bug just to put it in context.</div><div><br><div><br><div class="gmail_quote">

</div>After screwing around with this for a day, I finally figured out what is<br>
going on. For some reason, it was also loading the acer_wmi module, a<br>
driver for a different type of wireless chip, and this was screwing<br>
things up. As soon as I did "modprobe -r acer_wmi", then everything<br>
worked. I just needed to blacklist this module<br>
in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf, and now the Atheros chip is working<br>
even after a reboot.<br>
