Summary: wlan-ng-driver needs a patch to build against kernel
2.6.16
Description:
linux-wlan-ng 0.2.3 does not build against kernel 2.6.16 unless a patch is
applied first. This patch is already in widespread use e.g.
Arch Linux -
http://cvs.archlinux.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/network/wlan-ng26/?cvsroot=Extra&only_with_tag=CURRENT
Gentoo -

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Unlikely that this will be fixed - wlan-ng-driver is almost obsolete due to
orinoco and hostap drivers in the kernel, and we won't add extensive
patches to the 2.6 kernels due to maintenance overhead.
