I see. > Did this hardware work with a previous kernel version? Does it work > with the current official kernel package (linux-image-3.0.0-1-amd64)? This device is rather peculiar. I currently have a dual boot with Ubuntu 11.04. In Ubuntu, using kernel 2.6.38 the device works correctly as expected. The bluetooth LED turns on and everything. In Debian, however, running either my vanilla kernel 3.0.4 or official Debian kernel 3.0.0-1-amd64 leads to the same error at boot time. The weird thing is that, sometimes when I restart Ubuntu and go into Debian, the firmware loaded into the AR3011 does not get wiped out and I get a clean boot with no errors using Debian. If I turn it off and boot into Debian, then I have trouble. I think this may be a bug in a recent kernel: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=702375 I guess this should be reassigned to the kernel then?
