[Bug 45983] D-link G650+

[rodgie]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-restricted-modules-2.6-386

Many people think that acx111 not working is a firmware problem, but from what i undestand it is driver's issue.
Daper Drake has driver version 3.21.
(ver. available via command >iwconfig wlan0 [look for nickname])

Changelog from website http://acx100.erley.org/ where the driver is
developed (only important parts)::

[20060126] 0.3.31
* fix bug uncovered by code added in support for firmware 2.3.1.31
[20060124] 0.3.30
* fix breakage introduced by vda
* Bas Vermeulen <bvermeul at blackstar.xs4all.nl>:
  support for firmware 2.3.1.31
[20060108] 0.3.25
* fix scanning breakage

Also the new driver looks for firmware in /lib/firmware directory, so it
is visible to all kernel versions.

Newest driver (check README for info):
http://acx100.erley.org/acx-20060521.tar.bz2

Including the new driver in Daper's kernel's modules would help many acx 100/111 users. If it's possible I would be really grateful for saving my time each time I set up new kernel.

PS.I currently use driver v. 3.35 (acx-20060215.tar.bz2) with D-link G650+ (h/w B1, radio16) - works OK, I haven't checked the newest driver yet.

** Affects: linux-meta (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed
