Hi :) pkg_info -L iwi-firmware* will show that the script installed by the port is /etc/rc.d/iwi I had the issue with mergemaster destroying it in the past (thank god for backups!), so I had moved it to /usr/local/etc/rc.d/iwi.sh . Since 6.1 and latest iwi port upgrade (I'm on iwi-firmware-2.4_7 now) * , i'm getting more a lot more lockups than before when bringing the card back up ( usually after a suspend/resume cycle). I'm testing a new set of custom scripts to load/unload if_iwi.ko for a full reset and see if this makes any different to stability. * lack of stability could also be caused in my case due to change of laptop( from Toshiba Tecra A2 to IBM thinkpad z60m...) Beto =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D Thanks! I looked, and there was no iwi script there either. It seemed to pick up iwi.sh, but there are a whole bunch of messages that aren't being logged anywhere (as per a discussion on -STABLE) that suggest that something isn't quite right. It does work connection-wise, but I haven't been able to get any resume behavior other than a full boot out of it. -- Don Wilde Org 01737 505-844-1126 I didn't get a toy train like the other kids. I got a toy subway instead. You couldn't see anything, but every now and then you'd hear this rumbling noise go by. - Steven Wright
