        Hi Dave & Jeff,

        The attached .bz2 file is a patch for 2.6.3 adding the
Intersil Prism54 wireless driver. Sorry for the attachement, the file
is rather big, if you want inline+plaintext, I'll send that personal
to you.
        I've been using this driver with great success on 2.6.3 and
2.6.4-rc1 (SMP). This driver support various popular CardBus and PCI
802.11g cards (54 Mb/s) based on the Intersil PrismGT/PrismDuette
chipset.
        I would like this driver to go into 2.6.X. However, I
understand that it's lot's of code to review.


I would like it to go into 2.6 too :)  I'm glad somebody submitted it.

I'll review it this weekend... and hopefully some other netdev denizens will review as well and post their comments.

Jeff


        Any news, Jeff ?
        Thanks in advance...


Looks pretty decent to me. I'm basically waiting on 2.6.4 release to merge it. I might remove some of the more egregious #ifdefs.

        Jeff
