Could I suggest a minor update to the instructions at
http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Download, to avoid a bit of confusion?
For whatever reason, section "9. Selecting your driver" is listed
_before_ the instructions to extract the compat-wireless tarball in
"Section 10. Building and installing"
(Of course, selecting a specific driver can only be done _after_
extracting the tarball because ./scripts/driver-select is _in_ the tarball!)
No offense or anything, but the order there seems a bit strange. It
threw me off the first time, so perhaps it has others as well?
On the whole though, thanks for providing the great package!
