HISTORY VERSION 1.4 (2007-10-04) Sync to vendor driver v2.21.0.0 According to Atheros, this firmware fixes a USB disconnect issue which most commonly appeared when running "lsusb" or "cat /proc/usb/devices" while using the device. VERSION 1.3 (2006-12-30) Sync to vendor driver v2.16.0.0 Large packet support is now disabled. The zd1211 firmware is now the same as v1.1 but the zd1211b firmware is new: It is the same which is shipped in the 2.10.0.0 release which supposedly fixes a "reboot issue" VERSION 1.2 (2006-07-22) Sync to vendor driver v2.13.0.0 Release notes mention that this firmware includes largepacket support VERSION 1.1 (2006-04-30) Added ZD1211B firmware files VERSION 1.0 (2006-04-16) This firmware has been generated from fersion 2_5_0_0 of the Zydas driver, 2006-04-16. --end-- So zero troubles to be at linux-firmware.git, can anyone submit a patch ? latest fw at: http://netcologne.dl.sourceforge.net/project/zd1211/zd1211-firmware/1.4/ -thanks-
