[driverloader] IBM miniPCI abg (Atheros) and SuSE 9.1 Kernel Oops

[Linuxant Support (Jonathan)]

Hi,

could you please send at support at linuxant.com the output of 'dumpdiag'. Type 
the following in a root shell:

---
dldrconfig --dumpdiag
---

Just send us the generated file located in /tmp ('driverloaderdiag.txt').
It'll help us solve the problem.

Thanks,
