even f7 still uses v28... any update plans? 28 is the latest stable release. We'll pull in 29 when it's released/closer to stable. Even if it was stable, we are past feature freeze at this point. Bugs that request version updates are largely useless, really. I can simply patch the version to say 29 if all you care about is numbers. If you care about stuff working though, I can fix bugs if you file bugs on the problems you are having. The 64 bit patch is fairly small and we can probably backport that. ipw3945 works fine using wireless tools 28 for many people, though I imagine they are using 32 bit machines.

I use it on x86_64 to and it works fine but I cannot assiciote with some APs when using networkmanger, while searching for the reason while this might be happing I read the readme of the ipw3945 driver and found the text above. So I thoight this may be related to my problems (I might be wrong because wpa_supplicant works). If wpa_supplicant works, then you're probably wrong. Though our wireless tools does have the 64bit fixes in it now. Closing this one as cantfix since 29 isn't out yet. |
