This looks almost sane, I'll suck it in and contact the author.  It does
look like they are suggesting that a core network change is also needed,
I'll find out what is going on there.

This is a bit odder, but might just be needed for one brand of laptop.
I'll ask to find out, at the least it needs to be changed to not use
/proc/ anymore, which is easily done.

thanks for the pointers, if anyone has any others, please let me know.
