First of all, thanks for your quick response Inaky, it is appreciated.
While the prospect of an open source supplicant is obviously preferred,
is there any way to take the old binary supplicant and compile it for 64
bit? Or make the 64 bit wimax network service able to use the 32 bit
binary blob of a supplicant? I love the idea of an open source
supplicant, but at the moment I'd take free as in beer while waiting for
my free as in freedom.
At this point, that'd be probably more work than the final push to the
open source one.
I understand the frustration, but we are severely tight with resources
here, so we need to place them where most makes sense. In the long term,
the open source solution is the best one, so the little we can divert
resources from anyone, we try to put them there.
Understandable to be sure. I figured if it was as simple as just
compiling the binary in 64 bit that it could be done easily but if work
is required I would definately rather see the resources go into the open
source version. I help fun a small livecd for which I've added wimax
support to the 32 bit version. If you need anything related to the 64
bit work you are doing tested, I have a small user base that is equipped
with appropriate hardware and I'm sure they would be very happy to 1)
Help test and 2) Have a working device :-)
Thanks again,
Rick
