If you support "open hardware", you know what to do > the next time you need a wifi adapter ;-) Sounds like a well supported choice to me. - Askadar [1] http://www.kernelnewbies.org/LinuxChanges#head-4da044e5471a2da356e794daa95807b53538bb1d _______________________________________________ arch mailing list [email protected] http://www.archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/arch
