Rodriguez" CC: linux-wireless@vger.kernel.org Subject: compat-2.6: ath9k driver Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Sender: linux-wireless-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: I just got a new HP dv5z laptop with a/b/g/n wifi adapter; it claims to be an AR5009. Googling for the PCI ID (0x002a) matched it up with AR9280, which led me to the ath9k driver. It's not currently provided with the compat-2.6 tree but I pulled a copy from the wireless-testing branch and added it to my compat tree. It needed 3-4 definitions to be added to but otherwise compiled OK and it's now working fine for me in 2.6.26.3. Did you already have plans to include this driver, should I post my diffs? -- -- Howard Chu CTO, Symas Corp. http://www.symas.com Director, Highland Sun http://highlandsun.com/hyc/ Chief Architect, OpenLDAP http://www.openldap.org/project/
