I thought they were making some progress on this recently, but I haven't spoken with them in a while, so I don't know if it's realistic or not. But it's a fairly important one, so if we can't go to rt2x00, could we see if we could get the existing driver to load without the firmware? > > - we also need a working atl1c driver for new models that use it > > Which kernel will get in squeeze?

I'm hoping at least 2.6.31, if not 2.6.32. > > - in addition to the driver issue above, we need to resolve the > > conflict between acpi-support and eeepc-acpi-scripts for this to work > > Couldn't we divert the needed files from acpi-support? Ugh. Diversion is a last resort measure. It would be better to work with the acpi-support maintainers to resolve the conflicts in a more graceful manner.
