Comment 1 Dave Jones 2005-09-23 19:49:35 UTC 
The initial merge of the ipw driver was an earlier version to what we previously
had in Fedora.  The upstream maintainers need to push the later changes to the
kernel.org kernel, and Fedora will then pick up those changes.

By the time FC5 ships, this should be done.
