Yeah, this is reasonable advice.  I don't know why Fusion droped this
package, but it might have been due to me making their life harder by
integrating compat-wireless directly into the Fedora kernels.  Since I
am no longer doing that, they may be willing to reverse that decision.

I don't really see including a staging driver in Fedora unless it is
clearly on the path to the "normal" part of the kernel.  Any chance
of that?
