I'm using the release version because it supposedly has this driver, but the issue is when I'm on battery it'll work and load the driver, on ac forget it. Its on a laptop with an iwn device so I'm in for real hell - but thats for another post. The long and the short of it is: how do I fix it? What do I need to look at (source wise) to fix the issue and where can I find more precise info on it? Would an experienced developer (even the original who wrote the driver) be willing to guide me so I can fix more of these little issues with drivers until I can get the know how to write my own?
