Wifi improvements for 2.6.25.8

Just a short note. Tempestuous has been helping 4.1alpha1/2 testers to sort out wifi problems, and has reported success with drivers downloaded from here:
http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Download

I have compared the changelog at the above site with the 2.6.25.x changelog at kernel.org, and it seems that the the improvements are going into the kernel. So, if I compile 2.6.25.8 (the latest) then there should be no need to obtain the package from linuxwireless.org.

I'm getting impatient. I posted a bug report to the Unionfs developers, but they seem to be on holiday (they're academics). I'll wait a couple more days, then will do the compile.

"Barry, please have a look at this: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10975 I opened a bug for that error/warning message you got and someone just posted a patch.

"Dougal, Thanks for that. I don't have the GLOBETROTTER.cis file, but I hunted around and found GLOBETROTTER.dat on the Internet, hopefully that is ok. Er, I had better look in the source package, that's on another PC.
