Explaining WLAN Chips' Poor Linux Support
morcheeba writes "Kernel Traffic is reporting (mirror mirror list) that 'Some WLAN Chip Specs Secret To Protect Military Communications.' While this is stretching it a bit -- these radios are generally limited to a narrow frequency range and few modulation types -- software can cause illegal radio operation, especially when the laws vary by country. Is Linux support for 802.11g and Centrino chipsets going to be delayed by manufacturers afraid of FCC harassment? An interesting discussion on the future of Openness in radio chipsets." Interesting comments from Alan Cox in here about just how flexible some of these chips are.
Nice story about ESR but it's a well known fact that he's gay.
He likes nothing more than kneeling down and taking a random penis in his mouth via a glory-hole at a nondescript seedy gay bathhouse.
I'm glad somebody is taking responsibility for Linux poor performance.
so i love to suck fat juicy cock. when i get home from school. i like to take off my clothes and read the latest slashdot stories. by that time my face has been flaring up all day so i have about 500 to 1000 pimples all over my body. i like to go to cmdrtaco.net and spank too. i also use lunix because steve ballmer is a very bad man. i have no life and girls are icky! they have cooties! if i ever came in close contact with them i would run the risk of actually GETTING A FUCKING LIFE
if all americans were proud ignorant assholes like you, then there would be a good reason to nuke you.
Fortunally proud white aryans like you are just a minority in the US. Unfortunally one of you is the president.
