I'm using 2.6.22-rc6 with bcm43xx (with Firmware V3). With bcm43xx-mac80211 the connection is not reliable, unfortunatelly. Another question... the patches in 2.6.22-rc6 will be in official kernel 2.6.22? I mean, if Fedora bring out 2.6.22-X kernel-package then it contains the patches? cu Floh _______________________________________________ Bcm43xx-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/bcm43xx-dev
