curaga,
do you mean to imply there is a high probability that the Oops is caused by being a backport per se?
As the info refers to patches and particularly to atheros, I had in mind examining to which degree the patches have effect to specific modules loaded - as can be seen in syslog attached to earlier post - in this case here, that's why I would like to get a hold of the source (at least the patches used).
As implied in my first post my aim is not to fix this version, but rather to prevent it's use in cases where there is more potential risk than expectable benefit.
One approach could be to remove at least the rt2500 module from the extension, or add a warning to the .info file.
BTW, overall I am better off personally with 2.x regarding wireless, as rt2500usb module in wireless-2.6.29.1-tinycore.tcz has never ever caused any such issues, and AFAIK modules for rtl8187SE are only available for 2.x, as opposed to 3.x.
