I don't really see what you're trying to get it so I arbitrarily picked this ... I think "ROM patching" like in BT and 802.11 are two completely different things. In BT at least you have a common transport to the device, a more-or-less common command set (HCI) etc. None of that exists for wireless (today) so trying to find common ground between firmware (patches) for different 802.11 hardware seems completely futile? johannes -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-bluetooth" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
