If I understand correctly (may be misguided here) the broadcom wireless drivers are not supported under 2.6; this is why I haven't included 2.6 support. I will come clean that the kernel patches are from Netgear, I just cleaned them up a little. In the patches submitted I have done the following moved drivers/mtd/devices/sflash.c to arch/mips/bcm947xx/sflash.c then created a new mtd driver in drivers/mtd/devices/sflash.c. My rational for that is that the original sflash.c seems not to include any MTD references, hence moving it to arch. I will not stake any claim to this being the "correct" place to put it. As for the new MTD driver (again sflash.c) if I understand that would perhaps be better placed in drivers/mtd/devices. Again, happy, whatever is considered to be the correct place. With luck the non-kernel patches should be more or less clean... > Hope that helps. I am waiting for other comments ;) Indeed it does ;) Dave _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openwrt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
