It's actually the : vendor propriotary mode which you don't really want to use since it : locks you into a subset of cards. Yes. I have to MFC the support from -current for ad-hoc and ibss mode, but haven't had time to do the work. I'm also waiting for someone to implement ibss/ibss-master in the an driver too so that I can merge that at the same time and things will be consistant. Hmmm, maybe I should go do the awi driver when I do that. Warner To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
