Luis _has_ done a great job. Having dealt with Atheros in another life, I can appreciate the mountains he's moved. I would also offer my appreciation to those unnamed, enlightened individuals within Atheros that made this possible. Nothing would please me more then to be able to drop the madwifi HAL in favor of full support from ath5k. rtg -- Tim Gardner [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ ath5k-devel mailing list ath5k-devel@lists.ath5k.org https://lists.ath5k.org/mailman/listinfo/ath5k-devel
