Fw: Netgear MA401 wireless cards

Hi all,

Can someone tell me whether a constant stream of these debug messages is
correct if the wi driver is put into debug mode.

These messages will go on forever.

I have the following options in my kernel config file

    options         WLCACHE         # enables the signal-strength cache
    options         WLDEBUG         # enables verbose debugging output

Is it the WlDEBUG that is causing the messages? Should I turn this option
off to get more meaningful debug messages?

Also, the problem I raised with the wi interface debug mode and channel
changes
is still happening after a cvsup, kernel rebuild and reboot.

Cheers
Gavin
