I've ran into some problems with both CURRENT and patched 8-STABLE on the first try (I have ath0 interface running, it seems to associate with AP, but it doesn't seem to transmit any frames), however, my overall system doesn't feel well right now, so I don't think that's a driver's issue. I'll give it a try on a fresh CURRENT installation soon, report will follow. -- wbr, Boo
