But: No, unrelated to sound, just fixes to softmac. But seeing this made me realise that the earlier patches to softmac haven't gotten into rc2 yet (and I don't know if they are in linus' tree), so try applying all the patches in the directory in the following order: wext-eagain-scan-results stop-queue-while-scanning handle-auto-iw-mode softmac-events.patch softmac-event-scan.patch and then the ones in the series file. Sorry for confusing the various trees (these 5 are in wireless-2.6 and probably netdev-2.6 but apparently not in linux-2.6 yet) johannes
