Or so they say. Is just following the upstream instructions at linuxwireless.org likely to work? Will it mess up things done "the debian way"? The other complication is that it sounds as if the fix is to the driver, not the firmware. The tarball doesn't appear to have any firmware in it. They say the 2.6.25 kerrnel will include the fixes, with linuxwireless.org having stuff for earlier versions. Ross
