Package: linux-image-2.6-ixp4xx
Version: 2.6.24+13
Severity: wishlist

The default kernel of ARM ixp4xx based devices (i.e. NSLU2) does not include 
the necessary modules for wireless networks using WPA security 
with TKIP encryption.  I know this is deprecated in favour of the AES based 
CCMP encryption, but I am using some devices which do not 
support CCMP, so must fall back to TKIP.

The ieee80211_crypt_tkip.ko module is required to be built and can be enabled 
by setting "CONFIG_IEEE80211_CRYPT_TKIP" in the kernel config.  
I've done this on a custom build of the kernel image and it works OK and I can 
use my NSLU2 on the wireless network
