Both WLAN drivers support a multitude of different hardware (Libertas: CF/PCMCIA, SDIO, SD, USB and Orinoco: CF/PCMCIA, PCI, PPC_PMAC). And both have hardware abstraction layers that don't suck, obfuscate or create lots of duplicate code. So AFAIK it's not the question *IF* to do hardware abstraction but only a question *HOW* to do it in an intelligent way. Don't luck at one bad implementation and disregard the whole concept :-) -- http://www.holgerschurig.de -- 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
