Thanks for taking a look. If the ks7010 driver has 802.11 stack in firmware does that mean it is not compatible with using the kernel mac80211 stack with the current firmware? I do not have my hopes up about getting any chip information out of Renesas, all I think we have to go in is the current WEXT driver. This is an exercise in learning for me, but I do not want to take any ones time up with a project that is not that useful. Is getting the ks7010 driver out of staging something that is of use to the kernel community or are there other wi-fi tasks that our time is better spent on? thanks, Tobin. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
