Hi!
If this is post-2.6.13 material, that's fine. I've been getting tired of the slow movement of wireless. A little bit of that is my fault, certainly. I've also been wanting to get these net drivers out to Linux users. This adds HostAP, ipw2100, ipw2200, and the generic ieee80211 code. The only -changes- in this set are cosmetic. Further work is pending from SuSE and Intel [*poke* *poke* to them], but these should be working, and have been in -mm for quite a while. One big thing I'm still hoping for is that someone will merge HostAP (where ieee80211 code came from) with the ieee80211 generic code. The HostAP maintainer has been unwilling to do it, even though he has been good about keeping HostAP updated, so hopefully a volunteer will step up. Please pull from branch 'ieee80211-wifi' of rsync://rsync.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jgarzik/netdev-2.6.git to obtain the changes described by the attached diffstat/changelog. The file additions were too large to attach, so I only attached the changes to existing files. Existing drivers merely had some struct renames (for new ieee80211 header), and some 'add "static" attribute' changes.
Wow, thanks! Pavel -- if you have sharp zaurus hardware you don't need... you know my address
