This is about software that is free, not just software you don't have to pay money for. Even if we were, madwifi and ndiswrapper are fundamentally unsupportable from an engineering perspective. Having large blocks of code you can't fix is not a sustainable approach, and any distro that ships them - let alone claims to support them - is out of its mind, and is merely deferring the user's pain until runtime. - ajax -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
