Putting v3 support into bcm43xx-mac80211 is not an option. Porting bcm43xx-sm to mac80211 is an option.

Makes it _much_ more clear which hardware is supported by this driver. -- Greetings Michael. _______________________________________________ Bcm43xx-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/bcm43xx-dev
