I think it would be fine to also have it in a separate app. Any way it can be released works for me! Can you give me a hint what to search for to find the patch? I found http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-wireless/msg54532.html but it is just about setting regdomain from GeoClue. That's VERY different from writing the EEPROM, the only useful solution IMO. > we wanted to have a solution for embedded to though and APs > neither have nor can get GPS devices on them and GeoClue is a bit > of bloat for embedded as well.

Yes, it needs more administration. //Peter _______________________________________________ GeoClue mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/geoclue
