Bug#405795: RFA: acx100 -- ACX100/ACX111 wireless network drivers source
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
I request an adopter for the acx100 package.
The package is in good shape, (only an irreproducible old bug) and there
are a new version (2007/1/1) that must be uploaded to experimental, and
another one that it's based in dscape that it's trying to enter in
kernel mainline.
My wireless card was broken yesterday, so I can't test it anymore.
I'll sponsor this package if you need it.

The package description is:
This package provides the source code of the Linux drivers for wireless
network cards using TI ACX100/ACX111 chips. This includes DWL-[G]520+
PCI, DWL-[G]650+ CardBus, GL-2422MP mini-PCI, DWL-120+ USB, USR5410, etc.
See http://acx100.sourceforge.net/ for information about your wireless
device.
.
In order to compile the kernel modules you need the kernel sources (or
the kernel-headers for the kernel-image packages from Debian). For
compile instructions look into usr/share/doc/acx100-source/README.Debian
or simply use the module-assistant utility.
.
Please also note that the ACX100/111 chips need a firmware to be
operational. You can get this firmware from the Microsoft Windows or
from homepage.
