Rodriguez The next patch adds the new QCA alx Ethernet driver that supercedes the atl1c Ethernet driver. For details please read the commit log of the patch. Given the size you can download the patch from: http://bombadil.infradead.org/~mcgrof/2012/02/28/add-alx-next-20120228.patch sha1sum: 8a8f7b6f1cbe737e70ec3b3eda483a6925fd9bd6 Many thanks to our QCA Networking engineering team for their hard work on getting this driver polished, well tested against atl1c, and also to Joe and Hao-Ran for their patches. If you'd like to quickly install this on any system even with older kernels you can get this tarball which has the driver backported for older kernels: http://www.orbit-lab.org/kernel/compat-wireless/2012/02/compat-wireless-2012-02-28-p.tar.bz2 sha1sum: 7c083fc568900fbeefed021d009620830f866819 The "-p" postfix annotates that we have applied a patch in this tarball from the linux-next-pending/ directory. For more details see: http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Download/stable/#Additional_patches_to_stable_releases To only compile and install the alx driver you can do: ./scripts/driver-select alx make sudo make install The install will disable atl1c in preference for alx. To revert back to atl1c you can simply do: ./scripts/alx-enable atl1c This is part of today's release of compat-wireless with the following code metrics: compat-wireless code metrics 828230 - Total upstream lines of code being pulled 2492 - backport code changes 2137 - backport code additions 355 - backport code deletions 9015 - backport from compat module 11507 - total backport code 1.3893 - % of code consists of backport work 13428 - Code changes posted but not yet merged 13407 - Code additions posted but not yet merged 21 - Code deletions posted but not yet merged 1.6213 - % of code not yet merged Base tree: linux-next.git Base tree version: next-20120228 compat-wireless release: compat-wireless-2012-02-28-p Luis R.
