Hi! You can find the new driver, and additional information about it, here: http://intellinuxwireless.org/iwlwifi. ... You can find that package at: http://intellinuxwireless.org/d80211 Ok. Now... any questions? Yes... is there merged .git tree somewhere? I downloaded iwl git tree, but it did not contain d80211 stack. I'm now downloading wireless-dev git tree... There isn't a singular merged iwlwifi + d80211 package tree outside of wireless-dev, and iwlwifi isn't there yet (I'm cleaning out some dead and duplicated code before we submit) Ok, I was looking for merged tree.

I think we should take this as a goal. Last time I checked, d80211 wasn't in -mm. Perhaps it should go there. And by the way, the latest changes from netdev->class_dev to netdev->dev break d80211. Perhaps we should rebase wireless-dev immediately after 2.6.21-rc1, fix all compile issues and submit the patch to -mm. And iwlwifi is surprisingly good for a just announced driver. It worked for me from the first attempt, and that's the first d80211 driver to do so. In my opinion, it should go to wireless-dev as soon as possible so it can go to -mm toghether with other drivers.

Quoting John W. Linville [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Very cool! Is it likely that d80211 and iwlwifi will be pushed into mainline in time for 2.6.21? Hmmm...I think we need to spend a cycle or so in -mm. 2.6.22 seems more likely for mainline. I think we should take this as a goal. Last time I checked, d80211 wasn't in -mm. Perhaps it should go there. And by the way, the latest changes from netdev-class_dev to netdev-dev break d80211.
