I think you are using an old mmiotrace. Sorry, I didn't test it, but I assumed the author of mmiotrace would keep it up to date. It looks like a lot of organizational work needs to be done. Old patches should be hidden, obsolete webpages should be rewritten, madwifi-trace should be eliminated and replaced with a few scripts. I wish I could ask others to do it, but such work is better done by those who know the history of the project and knowledge to share with others. The latest mmiotrace is in the linux-next repository. It is scheduled for Linux 2.6.27. It should not require userspace utilities, if I remember correctly. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin _______________________________________________ ath5k-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ath5k.org/mailman/listinfo/ath5k-users
