I put 4.4 BSD code (separate files/tar blob with everything/patches per file) in: ftp://ftp.cs.pdx.edu/pub/mobile/wi.44.patches/ It would be nice to have some beta testers. Please try and report back. And keep an eye out for what "capinfo" results might mean, as I have not much of a clue. The code seems to work with prism2 devices as well. However all I have in that regard is one dlink card. There is also a nice feature in the driver for printing out the firmware info at probe/insert time, and also hopefully an improved man page for wicontrol.
