sl5600 patched kernel for wireless extension v13 or above
« on: March 01, 2004, 04:05:46 pm »
Is there any kernel out there that integrates wireless extension and works with Sharp ROM 1.32.  It would be great if the source for the patched kernel is available for 5600 --if not the binary zImage will do too.

There are patches available in OpenZaurus build root via bitkeeper:
http://openembedded.bkbits.net:8080/packag...src/.|src/linux

They can be applyed on top of kernel source. Beware though that this will requrie an updated drivers (orinoco or hostap) and wireless tools - the built in ones will very likely freeze zaurus.
