Re: intel 4965agn 54Mbps on Linux but 130Mbps on Windows

Could it come from the fact that the kernel in Ubuntu Hardy does not
have CONFIG_NETDEVICES_MULTIQUEUE enabled ?

I got this warning when I installed compat-wireless but I don't know
if it is required to get 802.11n working.

Best regards,
Chris.
