Whether b43 or brcmsmac is better does completely depend on the application. And for that single reason I do not see either b43 or brcmsmac being dropped in favor of the other one any time soon. You guys obviously don't want to support legacy hardware. So there is absolutely no way to drop b43 in favor of brcmsmac. That is _impossible_. And I do agree that it would be completely insane for you guys to support the legacy b43 802.11g code. The other way around, dropping brcmsmac in favor of b43 would be insanely stupid, too. It would basically be dropping broadcom-linux-wlan support. Nobody wants that. I do, however, think that a separate broadcom-supported PHY module should be created, that is used by both brcmsmac and b43. -- Greetings, Michael. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list [email protected] http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
