It is the change https://mail-index.netbsd.org/current-users/2020/05/01/msg038495.html that seems to cause me trouble.

I tried applying the work-around steps detailed :

  o recreate the entropy file
  o feed urandom to random (or vice-versa) and syctl entropy consildated to 1

But the issues were still there.

I need to move on for the next two weeks on that (And have a functional laptop on NetBSD for a business trip before Wednesday, if possible :p.)

So I will put on 9.1 for now, but I am happy doing more testing later,
(Finger crossed that it will support the Atheros!.)

Thank you,

Kindest regards
