If and when I get my hands on one, I’ll write a post about it. So far, details of actual release her in the UK are still sketchy. My iPhone fanboy friends find this amusing for some reason.

Well mine just got shipped by Amazon to friends in LA who will send it on to me (Nokia aren’t going to release it in Australia!).. Oh the impatience! ;-)

I don’t get any problems with the ath5k modules in my setup – and I’m surprised you report difficulty with the madwifi drivers. Admittedly I’m no longer using that driver with my kernel (a variant of 2.6.30-rc5) but I did when I was using the standard xubuntu 8.10 install and it was solid there.

I am using WPA2/TKIP, so maybe thats part of the problem with the ath_5k modules?

Switched to madwifi-hal and no disconnects, though it doesn’t reconnect after suspend/hibernate (need to create some scripts to correct that), but perfomance is lower.

I might well give your kernel a try, as long as I generate a suitable initrd for it (I need XFS as / is on it (with /boot being ext2).

I only use memory sticks pro duo for my camera and PSP, but have a USB reader or can just plug either in via USB lead, so no real issue about memory sticks.

Chris

I routinely check SSL certs on sites I really care about regardless of whether I’m using tor (OK, maybe I am paranoid).
