| |
I have been looking into the drivers available for the Cisco Aironet 3[45]x cards and I have found several different versions. The three that seem to be the most recent are 1) the "stock" Linux driver, from the kernel source tree 2) the pcmcia-cs driver, available in the pcmcia-cs package at SourceForge 3) the Cisco driver, available in the Linux driver tarball on the Cisco website
Drivers #2 and #3 have version numbers in them of 1.8 and 1.5.2, respectively. The stock Linux driver seems a bit more recent than the latter two, yet its version number is listed as 0.3. Line 710 of drivers/net/wireless/airo.c:
> static const char version[] = "airo.c 0.3 (Ben Reed & Javier Achirica)";
Is this number inaccurate, or does it belong to a different numbering scheme? Or am I wrong and this driver is actually very old?
I would ask the maintainer, but none is listed in linux/MAINTAINERS. Nevertheless I am bcc:ing the individuals whose e-mail addresses are given in the source files.
