Yes. I had already thought so... But nevertheless, Atheros WLAN is fine with 10.0.
I didn't try it with Beta 1 thru 4. I only tried RC1. It didn't work.
There was a project sponsored by Google Code Summer which had the goal to write opensource atheros drivers. http://www.ath-driver.org/ I hope the author finishes the driver... it's not going to be easy. When I reverse engineered the nvnet driver, I really had to work hard, but it made the forcedeth driver possible, of which I'm proud.
I love your work, and at home I depend on it (Asus A7N8X). Your driver is working flawlessly here. Iam using it since the first 2.6 kernel version. Reminding me for my own task 10 (in fact more than 12) years ago: "Soundblaster Pro CDROM driver" - started at easter, first release "Pfingsten" (50 days later). And then came the double-speed drives, then lots of "almost compatible" vendors, then the quad speed Teac drive... I guess you feel "done" since long (right) - I couldn't before...
So if you can test this new opensource driver, please do so to help speed up development there.
Yes, please. Without feedback, opensource development is too hard to stand. Cheers -e -- Eberhard Moenkeberg (emoenke@gwdg.de, em@kki.org)
