Package: madwifi-source Version: 0.9.3-3 Severity: wishlist
Currently, the release version of madwifi is missing a significant amount of functionality when compared to the trunk builds at madwifi.org. For one thing, the trunk builds add support for 802.11n Atheros chipsets, which are found in many new systems containing Atheros chipsets including the MacBook Core 2 Duos. Furthermore, I have consistently noticed a 20% gain in signal strength using the trunk as compared to the release - certainly a significant increase. Finally, I'm seeing an increase in association speed when using NetworkManager on the trunk builds as compared to the release Is it possible to sync this package to a trunk build, add a new "madwifi-source-trunk" package, or put a trunk madwifi-source in experimental? It seems like it would be beneficial to many users...
