SubjectRe: [PATCH] wireless-2.6 zd1211rw check against regulatory domain rather than hardcoded value of 11
I've changed the patch based on your suggestions :-)
Hopefully my mailer doesn't eat the tabs this time, if it does I've
put the patch up at
http://www.holdenkarau.com/~holden/projects/zd1211rw/zd1211rw-use-geo-for-channels-r2.patch

I looked at the mainteners file, but the zd1211rw website (
http://zd1211.ath.cx/wiki/DriverRewrite ) says not to e-mail you guys
directly, rather use the mailing list.
