compat-wireless-2010-06-26-p.tar – Legacy Wireless Driver Backport Package compat-wireless-2010-06-26-p.tar

compat-wireless-2010-06-26-p.tar is a snapshot release of the compat-wireless project, dating from June 26, 2010 . This package was designed to provide a backport of the latest Linux wireless (802.11) drivers and subsystems to older or stable Linux kernels. The "compat" name refers to its compatibility framework, allowing newer wireless code to be built and run on kernel versions that did not originally include those drivers. tar -xvf compat-wireless-2010-06-26-p
