So, this is probably the last RFC and the official patches will follow on sunday (only if no one finds a bug that needs to be fixed ASAP.) Changes: - enabled HW crypto acceleration (on by default) - report noise and signal levels in dBm - sniffer/promiscouous mode now works in BSS - LED code rework - fixed last remaining checkpatch.pl ERRORs Features: - managed and (full) monitor mode (other modes may work too... but were not tested) - QoS - tx status => automatic rate control - offload for ccmp, tkip & wep - programmable LEDs Note: The whole patch series can be found in the linux-wireless archive. e.g: http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&r=1&b=200903&w=2 Regards, Chr --- John what's your verdict? would you accept the driver in its current state?
