Unfortunately, Amit's upload does not have the AR2425 (AR5007EG) patch. Actually, the whole thing looks pretty ugly -- the patch (see http://madwifi.org/ticket/1679 ) "breaks the ABI for all non-i386 HAL binaries". I don't know if this issue makes the patch unacceptable as something that could get into Hardy's l-r-m package, even if only the i386 architecture binary. Furthermore, the patch apparently does not apply cleanly to the 0.9.3.3 release, only to r2756 (e.g. snapshots.madwifi.org/madwifi-ng/madwifi-ng-r2756-20071018.tar.gz ). :(

So, is is possible that these patches could be incorporated into the next release of lrm?

Darn those binary blobs...
