Let's let the existing rt2x00 driver developers weigh in here. It might just be a matter of adding support for the new device to the existing driver, and if so, we don't want to add a whole new, horrible vendor driver to the kernel tree. If it turns out it's a totally different device that doesn't fit into the existing driver infrastructure, then we can add the new driver and start from there. So let's hear what Stanislaw and Helmut say we should do first. thanks, greg k-h _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
