--- Comment #12 from Axel Braun
Axel, of course we want that feature and it is already entered into our internal feature request tool.
Nevertheless shipping firmware with the distribution has some legal issues (at least for some firmware files, not sure about the p54) and therefore we will not do that.
Sure, at least for the p54 Softmac-drivers it is OK, see http://www.prism54.org/newdrivers.html The older Fullmac driver is not OK.
The correct approach to take is to download the files 'on the fly' when needed and not to ship them with the distribution.
Well, we are running into the hen-and-egg problem: How will u download a firmware, if you need the firmware to setup the (W)LAN? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
