hey all,

Can I safely apply this patch to the 2.6.25.1 kernel once it is released? I would love to test it... =)

(maybe a stupid question but I have no idea)

The patch doesn't apply cleanly to the current main branch (linux-2.6), and it's not likely to change before 2.6.25.1.

The conflicts are minor, but the patch would need to be adjusted.

If you want to test the patch, I suggest that you don't wait, but take the current compat-wireless instead, patch it and compile it for you current kernel. It worked for me.
