Error -110 writing Tx descriptor to BAP: msg#00001

Subject: Error -110 writing Tx descriptor to BAP
Hi, I'm getting the error "Error -110 writing Tx descriptor to BAP"
on my Thinkpad T30 laptop.

I am using the 2.6.11.11 kernel, with the orinoco driver that comes with
the kernel. I have also tried this with 2.6.11.7 and 2.6.11.10, with the
same results.

This happens when I use the wireless connection intensively.

When the driver loads at kernel boot (I have tried both module and built-in
driver versions) it prints this kernel message:

>From looking at the source code it lookes like the function
hermes_bap_pwrite is failing somehow. I tried setting the RTS to 250,
and even lower as David Gibson suggested in the FAQ. I am using WEP,
but haven't tested for this problem with WEP disabled yet. I'll do it
tonight.

What can I do to help? Are there any docs on the chips (looks like the
hfa3841) that I could go look at to help me understand the code?

Thanks.
