Hello Everybody,

I am trying to use a Gemtek WL350F Prism 2.5 mini PCI card as a HOST AP on a 
ADI coyote board. However the card doesn't seem to behaving very nicely. 

For instance after insmoding hostap_crypt.o and hostap.o, the insmoding of 
hostap_pci.o can fail quite randomly before appearing to succed. The messages 
are shown below. Any help or pointers on where to debug would be appreciated.

# insmod hostap_pci.o
Using hostap_pci.o
hostap_pci: 0.0.4 - 2003-07-27 (Jouni Malinen <jkmaline at cc.hut.fi>)
hostap_pci: Registered netdevice wlan0
wlan0: NIC: id=0x8013 v1.0.0
wlan0: PRI: id=0x15 v1.1.0
wlan0: STA: id=0x1f v1.4.9
wlan0: interrupt delivery does not seem to work
wlan0: Channel list read failed
wlan0: interrupt delivery does not seem to work
wlan0: MAC port 0 reseting failed
hostap_pci: Netdevice wlan0 unregistered
hostap_pci: No devices found, driver not installed.
insmod: init_module: hostap_pci: No such device
#

The above happens a few more times before apparently succeding below

#
# insmod hostap_pci.o
Using hostap_pci.o
hostap_pci: 0.0.4 - 2003-07-27 (Jouni Malinen <jkmaline at cc.hut.fi>)
hostap_pci: Registered netdevice wlan0
wlan0: NIC: id=0x8013 v1.0.0
wlan0: PRI: id=0x15 v1.1.0
wlan0: STA: id=0x1f v1.4.9
wlan0: Intersil Prism2.5 PCI: mem=0x4bfff000, irq=28

Thanks,
