Comment (by rudolfc):
So, the above driver works correctly on my Dell inspiron 8600 laptop with
Pentium-M 1.5Ghz with Intel Centrino technology inside on current
nightlies. Even the oldest current online nightlies do not work with their
respective driver (constantly disconnect if I generate ethernet traffic).
Additions to that:
- the working driver works OK if I start the laptop with mains power. It
will run at 1.5Ghz.
- When I start the laptop on its (full) battery it will run at 600Mhz and
even this driver version will constantly disconnect during traffic then.
- removing mains when already running apparantly keeps it running at
1.5Ghz (zo the 'about' Haiku box tells me at least: is that live updated
with the speed thing??). Looks like also the ethernet keeps working OK
then (Quick test).
- When started on battery, and later plugging in mains keeps the laptop
running at 600Mhz (so 'about' tells me)
- When running on 600Mhz the system time runs much faster than realtime.
1.6/0.6 times as fast?
