IMHO, is better use always bleeding edge drivers. I have installed in /lib/modules so I load always these modules. The quality of wifi is improved with bleeding edge drivers. The bleeding edge drivers is NOT only for injection.

Hi laasonen,

The ver 0.1.0-4 got the same version upgrade issue as the ver0.1.0-3.

Maemo.org's builder doesn't seem to build my package like my scratchbox. I hope the fifth build will work correctly.

EDIT: Seems to work

It just loads the modules. It doesn't make any permanent changes. Maybe in later versions

I managed to successfully install it with FAM, HAM and APT :/ You could try to kill the hildon-status-menu and see, if it starts:

Code:

killall hildon-status-menu

i've tried to remove one of my status-applet and reinstall the wlan-driver-selector but i can't see them. what can i do? thank you

The first time i tried this code it works. but after a phone restart and loading the drivers the code output something even tho the app says bleeding edge is loaded so i am not sure if the drivers are really loaded. so is there another way to check if it is loaded.
