Dear kernel team, I guess this one should be UPSTREAM, but I'm not sure if you don't prefer to be informed anyway... This is fixed for 2.6.25, not sure if it's worth a backport. BTW, their fix is too remove the reference to the non existing file. |
Help for IWLWIFI symbol in menuconfig for 2.6.24 kernels refers to Documentation/networking/README.iwlwifi file: =================== Select to enable drivers based on the iwlwifi project. This project provides a common foundation for Intel's wireless drivers designed to use the mac80211 subsystem. See <file:Documentation/networking/README.iwlwifi> for information on the capabilities currently enabled in this driver and for tips for debugging issues and problems. =================== That file does not exist: # ls /usr/src/linux/Documentation/networking/README.iwlwifi ls: cannot access /usr/src/linux/Documentation/networking/README.iwlwifi: No such file or directory
