adapter (and some workalikes). Also add man pages and a wicontrol utility to manipulate some of the card parameters. This driver was written using information gleaned from the Lucent HCF Light library, though it does not use any of the HCF Light code itself, mainly because it's contaminated by the GPL (but also because it's pretty gross). The HCF Light lacks certain featurs from the full (but proprietary) HCF library, including 802.11 frame encapsulation support, however it has just enough register information about the Hermes chip to allow someone with enough spare time and energy to implement a proper driver. (I would have prefered getting my hands on the Hermes manual, but that's proprietary too. For those who are wondering, the Linux driver uses the proprietary HCF library, but it's provided in object code form only.) Note that I do not have access to a WavePOINT access point, so I have only been able to test ad-hoc mode. The wicontrol utility can turn on BSS mode, but I don't know for certain that the NIC will associate with an access point correctly. Testers are encouraged to send their results to me so that I can find out if I screwed up or not.
