As you know, I'd intended to merge Realtek's latest code (RTL8192SU_usb_linux_v2.6.6.0.20110401.zip) into r8712u (ie drivers/staging/rtl8712/). But the above suggests that I should leave this to you. This leaves the rest of drivers/staging/rtl8712/TODO: - switch to use LIB80211 - switch to use MAC80211 Though I can tackle these before the merge, it may be more acceptable not to. Any thoughts? thanks, ali > thanks, > > Mike _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
