Hi all, I'm new to this list and sort of to fedora so be gentle :-). I bought myself a new 802.11n router since 2.6.25 and up now boast 802.11n functionality with iwl4965, a card I have in my t61p thinkpad, but it seems CONFIG_IWL4965_HT and CONFIG_NETDEVICES_MULTIQUEUE are not set in either 2.6.25.9-76.fc9 or rawhide's 2.6.26-0.107.rc8.git2 and are required for 802.11n functionality. Is there a chance they might be enabled in current or future builds for fedora 9/rawhide? How soon could I expect such builds to be released?
Best regards, -Jason

CONFIG_IWL4965_HT has been removed upstream and in the code in the Fedora kernels. It is no longer necessary.
CONFIG_NETDEVICES_MULTIQUEUE is necessary and I feel a bit silly that I didn't realize it was not on at least in rawhide. Is there any reason we don't have it on already?

Again, I'm a newbie but it seems that CONFIG_IWL4965_HT is present in both compat-wireless-2008-07-08 and vanilla 2.6.26-rc9 or am I not looking upstream enough....

Hello again, I've been eagerly awaiting a sulphur or rawhide kernel update w/ CONFIG_NETDEVICES_MULTIQUEUE set for 802.11n, and as of kernel-2.6.26-0.131.rc9.git9.fc10.x86_64, it is not. Any reason it hasn't been released in at least rawhide still?
