Subject: Please pull 'p54' branch of wireless-2.6
Date: Wed, 19 Sep 2007 15:55:27 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070919195527.GD5483@tuxdriver.com> (raw)

Jeff & Dave,

This patch adds the p54 driver for prism54 hardware using the "soft
MAC" firmware.  It includes modules for both PCI and USB drivers.

This driver has been in Fedora (both F7 and rawhide) for some time
and has generally performed well.  No doubt there are some problems
with the code, but still I think it would be better to mainline the
driver than to keep it out of stream.

Thanks,

John
