So that's a tree compiled from a couple hours ago?

am i doing anything wrong as hell?


Nope. I think it's very likely that the AR9285 support needs some more
attention.

Are you able to take an EEPROM dump (using ath_prom_dump -i ath0 -d
ar9285.dump) and email it to me?

Are you able to crack open the laptop and write down the exact details of
the chip? (ie part number, manufacturer, etc?) Different vendors do
different things to the same chipset.

Thanks,


Adrian
