Hi,

I am trying to use ipw2200 driver to get the CRC from
hardware/firmware.  I made the following modification in ipw2200.c

sys_config->pass_crc_to_host =3D 0;       /* TODO: See if 1 gives us FCS */
=3D=3D>
sys_config->pass_crc_to_host =3D 1;       /* TODO: See if 1 gives us FCS */

I got the following errors in dmesg for both v3.0 and v3.1 firmware.

[  371.318483] ipw2200: Firmware error detected.  Restarting.
[  371.472674] ipw2200: Firmware error detected.  Restarting.
[  371.623626] ipw2200: Firmware error detected.  Restarting.
[  371.775245] ipw2200: Firmware error detected.  Restarting.
[  371.926284] ipw2200: Firmware error detected.  Restarting.
[  372.078348] ipw2200: Firmware error detected.  Restarting.
[  372.230473] ipw2200: Firmware error detected.  Restarting.
[  372.381859] ipw2200: Firmware error detected.  Restarting.
[  372.535863] ipw2200: Firmware error detected.  Restarting.
[  372.687233] ipw2200: Firmware error detected.  Restarting.
[  372.838417] ipw2200: Firmware error detected.  Restarting.

... ...

Is it possible to fix this problem in the new firmware?

Thanks,
-Bo
