I've probably posted this here before, but even the Windows driver doesn't work properly: http://forums11.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/bizsupport/questionanswer.do?admit=109447626+1247092556853+28353475&threadId=1072085 If you use the latest driver, 1.00F, on XP, it blue-screens if it even *sees* an 802.11n access point in range! You have to downgrade to 1.00C, so no WPA on Windows either. It wouldn't take much to make the Linux driver better, even as is :-) All it needs now is redistributable firmware. - d. -- 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
