New on the list, first question

[Cyril HAENEL]

Thank you for your answer !

I dowloaded the 2.6.24RC1 kernel, and get the libertas directory to 
build it separately with the kernel source used in my uclinux distribution.
But there are compilation errors because the last libertas driver maybe 
use some new function which are available in the 2.6.24RC1 kernel, but 
not in the kernel I use...
Some work in perspective.

Regards,
Cyril HAENEL
