Hi Jarkko,

First of all, I'd like to thank you about all help that you are done
to me. Well, as I said, I can't use my WLAN interface after I compiled
the omap git kernel and flash it into my n800. But Daniel Stone
suggested me to use the cx3110x driver. From your post at
http://maemo.org/pipermail/maemo-developers/2007-February/007809.html,
I read that the driver will be available as soon as possible. Does
cx3110x driver correspond to the driver that you mentioned the that
post?
Please, let me know from now how can I use the driver with my
compiled kernel. Daniel suggested me some process, but I don't know
how can I do it.

Thank you,
Leandro.
