Thanks for your e-mail. Indeed, I just compiled a 2.6.27-rc2 kernel and it worked fine on x86-64 at least, which is a good thing. The only small problem that I see is that the activity led doesn't blink when the interface is sending or receiving data. Regarding PowerPC, unfortunately, my iBook's battery died and I will get a replacement to it (as soon as I can afford it). I also have yet to find some time to compile a kernel for it, but I am happy to report the results that I get (compiling the kernel will be easy, but installing on it will take me some time as my Linux installation on it seems to be messed up). > Note that I am not going to push it to 2.6.26 since I don't know if > the patch will cause problems in other parts of the driver. Ok, I see it. There were lots of changes in mac80211 too, from a quick glance at the patch.
