oh but then you have a MUCH bigger problem ;( The bios of that animal is hardcoded to the 5007 (or at least Atheros). If you stick your own card in, for FCC reasons, the bios refuses the card. (this is not unique to Asus; all notebooks do this for cards they're not certified with. This apparently has to do with the antenna being part of the laptop, and thus part of the radio in FCC speak) -- If you want to reach me at my work email, use [EMAIL PROTECTED] For development, discussion and tips for power savings, visit http://www.lesswatts.org -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
