Hi,
yesterday I recompiled the kernel on my late 2005 G4 PowerBook, and the
Wifi stopped working. After comparing the configuration is turns out
that a change to a Kconfig condition disabled SSB support which is
necessary for these chips.
The graph of configuration options is quite messy, and I'm not sure that
I fully understand it.
Nevertheless the following patch fixes the regression, but there might
be a better way to solve the problem.
If you pick up this trivial patch as is, you may add:
