I have no idea why you think I am applying random patches. Every patch and
link mentioned is dealing with the Agere/Hermes/Airport interface. There is
nothing random about my searches, kernel building, building world, or
anything else on this thread. If I had applied an OpenBSD Xenocara patch to
my xorg.conf hoping it would bring up the interface, that would be applying
a random patch.

And the ukphy driver is not available.
I am trying to make Hibbit's patch work, while no one else is testing it.
The airport card in my iMac G4 obviously has a bug.
Again, anyone else who has an Airport card that doesn't have the bug is
welcome to try the patch.

"You didn't read.."
Oh, yes, I did.
"The why are you ...."
At least I'm trying to make it work.
Hibbit's patches also had errors when building as a module but not when
building the kernel.
"So, what are you saying?"
There may be something useful in the old patches.
"And?"
And I am going to have some coffee.
