I was using https://github.com/qca/alx.git but after testing
my previous 3.8.13 kernel it seems it doesn't work.  Maybe I
compiled it but never got around to really test it...

The last version which worked was in compat-wireless-3.6.8-1-snpc.tar.bz2
from http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Download/stable#compat-wireless_3.6_stable_releases
which I had compiled for linux-3.7.6.


Thanks,
Johannes
