I'm the (not so) happy owner of a D-Link DWL-G132. You may know that Damien B. has written some drivers for OpenBSD, named uath, which should work with this : ugen1: on uhub4 USB WLAN Device(0x3a03), Atheros Communications Inc(0x2001) I read somewhere (http://www.freebsd.org/news/status/report-oct-2006-dec-2006.html) that "Support for Atheros USB devices is coming". However, if I found the ural part in the perforce repository of project usb, I did not find something looking like uath. The fact is, I need it. I've begin the work, but that's not as fast and straight-forward as I first thought. Actually, I was using if_wpi for Benjamin Close, if_udav from Shingo Watanabe and if_uath from OpenBSD, trying to mix everything. I did not find ural soon enough to have a look at it, but I'm pretty sure it may help a lot. My question is (yes, I have a question, the purpose of this email is not only to tell you what I do in my life ;)) : would it be worth it ? I mean, if somebody is working on it, I'm willing to help, test, or whatever (I am not afraid of terrible crashes). If nobody is doing it, then, I'll try to finish it on my own. I would also like to know if there is anonymous access (apart from the web) to the perforce repository. I'd like to get the content of http://cvs.freebsd.org/depotTreeBrowser.cgi?FSPC=//depot/projects/usb/src/sys/dev/usb/&HIDEDEL=NO Thanks in advance ! Cheers, -- Gregory
