which script is that?

Using 32 version as it was what i used to replace xp media edition on my boys computer. Is it worth a download of the 64 version to see if that works any better.

/sbin/rmmod ath9k
;;
resume|thaw)
/sbin/rmmod ath9k
/sbin/modprobe ath9k
;;
esac
exit 0
send me your

Code: Select all

inxi -Fxz
