The "devicescape" 802.11 stack has been renamed "mac80211" and has been accepted upstream for a while. The release notes should probably be updated to reflect it's current status and name change. Proposed text: mac80211 802.11a/b/g WiFi protocol stack (mac80211) (x86;x86_64) The mac80211 stack (formerly the devicescape/d80211 stack) enables the iwlwifi 4965GN wireless driver for Intel WiFi Link 4965 hardware. This stack allows certain wireless devices to connect to any Wi-Fi network. Although the stack has been accepted upstream, the stability of this stack is yet to be conclusively verified through testing. As such, this stack is included in this release as a Technology Preview. or something like that.
thanks Dan. revisions pushed to RHEl5.2 release notes. note to self: BZ#s 223560 and 223558 formerly used to track this slab of text in RHEl5.1. setting this bug to MODIFIED.
Hi, the RHEL5.2 release notes will be dropped to translation on April 15, 2008, at which point no further additions or revisions will be entertained. a mockup of the RHEL5.2 release notes can be viewed at the following link: http://intranet.corp.redhat.com/ic/intranet/RHEL5u2relnotesmockup.html please use the aforementioned link to verify if your bugzilla is already in the release notes (if it needs to be). each item in the release notes contains a link to its original bug; as such, you can search through the release notes by bug number. Cheers, Don
