I'm going to clean HT-PHY (BCM4331) support in about a week, as David wrote, it should be quite stable. Most of the patches are already in wireless-next, I just need to test that tree, see if everything was sent&applied correctly and drop BROKEN from B43_PHY_HT. If you're "brave" enough, you can: 1) Edit Kconfig and drop BROKEN from B43_PHY_HT 2) Edit dma.h and define B43_DMA_RINGMEMSIZE to "2 * PAGE_SIZE" (or just wait a week). I think I will start some b43 tree at git.kernel.org finally, but I need to spend some time on learning merging & resolving problems. -- Rafał _______________________________________________ b43-dev mailing list b43-dev@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/b43-dev
