Thanks for all your hard work on the driver!

I have been following your progress since last fall when I unsuccessfully tried to get the Airport Extreme cards working on a lab of iBook G4's running Yellow Dog Linux. We use them for our LAMP classes.

Last week I installed Fedora Core 5 PPC on my PowerBook G4, updated to the latest kernel available and installed the firmware. I had to put a modprobe command in my rc.local because the driver is not activated by default in FC5 yet. But it works great both on my home and college wireless networks, with no tweeking. I think you should activate it by default in FC5 if you have not already done so.

Thanks again! I look forward to getting my iBook lab machines working on wireless this summer.
