Has something changed recently to break that mechanism? Interesting.. I tried it now and it does indeed work, i.e., I get -wl from localversion-wireless. I have no idea what happened earlier, but 'make modules; sudo make modules_install' ended up installing modules into 2.6.27-rc4, not 2.6.27-rc4-wl after one of the git tree updates. I did not look at details at that point and just added -wl to Makefile EXTRAVERSION. Anyway, it is not needed anymore. -- Jouni Malinen PGP id EFC895FA -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
