I am sorry but I donīt understand about modular ifconfig and about "to phase out those sorts of programs out". But I am agree about that would be a question for Sam. So we have to wait now. -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-current@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd-current@freebsd.org] On Behalf Of Brooks Davis Sent: Sunday, August 21, 2005 3:51 AM To: dandee@volny.cz Cc: freebsd-current@freebsd.org Subject: Re: ATHCTRL for ATH On Sun, Aug 21, 2005 at 03:32:15AM +0200, Daniel Dvorak wrote: > Hi all, > > I have one question for you.

It's unlikely athctrl will be commited because we're attempting to phase those sorts of programs out in favor of a modular ifconfig. It's not clear to me if we the support or not at this point. That would be a question for Sam, but he's on vacation at the moment. -- Brooks -- Any statement of the form "X is the one, true Y" is FALSE.
