Description Miles Lubin 2005-08-09 08:38:22 UTC

As of 2005-07-11, the BSD branch of madwifi merged with HEAD:
"this brings a lot of features to the standard madwifi driver, including:
  - ad-hoc mode
  - power save mode
  - ad-hoc demo mode (pseudo ibss)
  - pure g mode (only allow G clients)
  - fixes for WPA
  - preparations for WME (untested)
  - and a lot of other bugfixes"

madwifi-bsd should be removed from portage, and madwifi-driver and madwifi-tools
should be bumped. The CVS as of two days ago is working fine for me as an access
point on x86.

and report?
