The attached patch fixes Wireless Extension for the raylink
driver. You are now able to set various Wireless Extensions but only
before opening the device (for example using /etc/pcmcia/wireless.opts
schemes). And I also fixed the bug that would crash the driver while
doing so (by not re-calling dl_startup_params()).
I've tested the patch with kernel 2.4.16 and verified that it
still applies cleanly to 2.4.18-pre2 and 2.5.2-pre10. The patch has
been on my web page since before Chrismas and the maintainer gave
approval for me to submit it directly for inclusion in the kernel (see
below).
Have fun...
Jean
P.S. : People that feel adventurous could add the code to stop the
card on device close.
