--- Begin Message ---Package: linux-wlan-ng Version: 0.2.9+dfsg-4 Severity: wishlist In the Description we read: Please note that you probably do not need this package: The prism2_usb driver is included in the default kernel packages since 2.6.31. If you need firmware loading for your prism2_usb device, please just install the prism2-usb-firmware-installer package. However in /usr/share/doc/linux-wlan-ng-doc/FAQ.gz we read 1) USB support (1) Is the only truly unique thing that linux-wlan-ng does that is generally needed any more. And indeed, prism2-usb-firmware-installer does not ALWAYS help, (as nor perhaps does linux-wlan-ng perhaps either.) In the Description we also read: This package ships legacy utilities and scripts for advanced configuration and user-space firmware downloading (support for non-USB devices). However, PRISM2DL=/sbin/prism2dl mentioned on /etc/wlan/shared.prism2 does not exist.
