Wireless weirdness (was: NT Stuff)

[Hewitt Tech]

I just read a write-up of the Ahtlon bug at
http://linuxtoday.com/news_story.php3?ltsn=2002-01-21-001-20-NW-KN They
describe a simple workaround and perhaps the problem is fairly machine
specific. I have a 900 mhz Athlon Thunderbird processor (Gigabyte mother
board) and haven't seen this particular problem. AFAIK there haven't been
these kinds of problems with the K6 series. AMD suffers from being "the
other guy" in terms of their microprocessors. I have found that if you're
not the dominant player (Intel) your stuff doesn't seem to get tested as
well as the other guy's.

P.S. This problem has been out there for a while, about a year, so hopefully
the fix is readily available.
