Comment (by anonymous):
Hi,
I had to hack '''ieee80211_wireless.c''' to get it to compile on Fedora 9
since Fedora is using version 8 of '''iw_wireless.h''' and that version
wants an '''iw_request_info''' structure address as the first argument of
'''iwe_stream_add_event''' and '''iwe_stream_add_point'''.
I just added static definition, '''static struct iw_request_info iw_info =
{ 0, 0};''', towards the start of the code and added a '''&iw_info''' as
the first argument of each of the '''add_''' calls I listed above.
Note that I just set the extended command and flags to zero which may not
be optimal, but the hack now gets ne a working AR5007 on my x86_64 system.
Thanks.
P.S.: Any idea when ath5k (or ath9k) will support the AR5007 chip on 64
bit OSs?
