Thanks for your explantion. My patches on top of the stable kernel don't build (they depend a 'cipher' member on ‘struct ieee80211_key_conf’, and I guess there may be more). If I want to reach my goal of trying carl9170 with a stable kernel, should I still proceed that route, i.e. finding the patches that carl* depends on, or trying to change the carl* code to not require them, or is there a better idea? I'd like to avoid running wireless-testing as is if possible (for fear of stability and security issues on this world-facing, supposedly stable router of mine). Thanks, Christian. -- 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
