Martin, I really miss the point of your tirade. Our advice is to use 5.110.22.p18

"Certain" is unfortunately around 80-90% of the cases. > There are other possible hot areas that should not be a problem for > the XS (as suspend/resume interactions with wireless and problems in > some XO's wlan modules (do not enumerate - still not clear to me if > this is related to the firmware) > > If there are other bugs (and there is always corner cases) they are > bellow my radar now. Is trac being used reasonably to track firmware issues? Checked earlier today - 'component = wireless' and 'summary contains libertas' kinda sorta give an overview. False matches and untriaged issues abound so it doesn't seem like anyone's looking at that "view" of the data. (Me, I only sleep when by this trac "view" tells me to: https://dev.laptop.org/query?group=status&milestone=xs-0.5 ) Perhaps Michails has a spreadsheet or wikipage hiding somewhere? ;-) You guys have been doing a ton of development (both features, bugfixes) dealing with several moving parts -- notes of "what works where" and "what clearly barfs" must be collected somewhere. cheers, m -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff
