One thing that needs to be done is for all the drivers to have the
wireless extensions implemented correctly.  I own a couple of rt2500's
and a couple of prism2.5's, neither of which work with NM at the
moment.  I suspect there are many other drivers that don't work with
NM, probably most of them.

Lucky you if you have one that works.

Are there any kernel hackers out there who would like to implement the
extensions for some of these chipsets?
