Of course the iwlwifi GIT (master) tree has latest stuff. As you might have seen there are different GIT branches for stuff to go into wireless-testing (experimental sofware), wireless-next (linux-next.git) and wireless (linux.git). > (only here has new fix and fixes are verified correct, then John Linville could > pull from here the iwlwifi.git, right?

But a better strategy would be to test this order: 1. wireless (stable) 2. wireless-next or linux-next (testing) 3. wireless-testing and/or wiwlwifi (experimental) - Sedat - > http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/iwlwifi/iwlwifi.git;a=history;f=drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi > http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless.git;a=history;f=drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi > [...] -- 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
