It's been a little while since the last release, with
something
three major kernel revisions coming along and breaking
everything for us
poor out-of-tree drivers. That and tue usual small pile of
bugfixes
trickling in.
As always, you can find the current release along with
gpg-signed
goodness in:
ftp://ftp.linux-wlan.org/pub/linux-wlan-ng
And for the adventerous, you can always obtain the latest
development
code from:
svn://svn.shaftnet.org/linux-wlan-ng/trunk
Changes from v0.2.4:
- 2.6.18-rc fixes.
- A few tweaks for Wireless-Extensions-21
- Fix an interrupt-related race that could lead to a crash
on shutdown.
- Tweaks to the prism2_usb code to improve suspendability
on 2.6.15+
- Silence many warnings under GCC 4.1
- prism2_cs support for 2.6.16+ (untested)
- Makefile fixes for 2.6.17+
- udev support for USB targets (Richard Kennedy)
- semaphores are deprecated as of 2.6.16 (Chris Rankin)
- prism2_usb build fix for 2.6.16
- Patches from Debian (via Victor Seva)
- Fix bugs in /etc/wlan/shared, including a security hole
- Fix build on 2.4.27 kernel
- Added man page for prism2dl
- Generate a WEXT Event when we gain/lose association.
- Make prism2_defer query ssid and bssid, as IBSS mode has
this change.
- Clean up prism2_defer_timer a bit.
- Propogate linkstatus into p80211, and make ethtool aware
of it.
- Eliminate wland and entire indication infrastructure. If
you want to
play with it, use 0.2.4. We can put it back in if
necessary.
Enjoy, folks.
