But p54 is so old that the user will need to buy newer hardware if he really needs 11w support out-of-box. IMHO there's no point of making a huge effort to add 11w support to older hardware, there are more important things to fix in Linux wireless stack than that. -- Kalle Valo -- 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
