Is it worth to try contacting dlink US? === Sehr geehrter Kunde, zu Ihrer Anfrage: Lizenz - Firmware WLAN Karten Moin, unter was für einer Linzenz steht die Firmware ihrer WLAN-Karten. Wäre es legal einige Dateien aus den Archiven unter ftp://ftp.dlink.com/Wireless/dwl520+/Driver/ mit einer Linux-Distribution zu vertreiben? Mit freundlichen Grüßen Felix Möller haben wir folgende Antwort für Sie: ********************************************************************************************* Bitte fragen Sie diesbezüglich bei D-Link in den USA an, wir haben keinen Einfluss auf die dort liegenden Dateien. Prinzipiell sind die Dateien zum Download bereitgestellt, Sie können immer einen Link in der Dokumentation angeben, die Dateien selber sind im Normalfall D-Link Property. === summary: german dlink is not resposible one has to ask dlink in the US. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

Anyway, fixing the link in the README only helps until D-Link decides to move the file again, so it may be better to document the location of the firmware on opensuse.org, which is easier to maintain. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.
