Honestly, what's the problem here? It's incredible that it works even a little bit. That's better than it was before bcm43xx existed. I don't see how you can claim that it's awful and that we're not working on trying to make it better. Larry has done a lot of work to keep the SoftMAC port working as best as possible and has backported many of Michael's devicescape fixes. Just because Michael isn't working on SoftMAC doesn't mean that it's useless. As for fixing bcm4318, have you reviewed the spec changes and compared them to the driver? Instead of complaining, be happy that it works at all and maybe help us out instead of sending useless emails to the list. -Joe _______________________________________________ Bcm43xx-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/bcm43xx-dev
