And firmware for the iwl* drivers will become available from RPMforge as soon as Dag has a chance to push them... :-D
Thanks to Ned for providing them.

A dying star ;-)
Anyway, looking at the SPEC files I noticed for iwl3945 and iwl4956 firmware not the latest version have been used. Is there a good reason for it or just an oversight ?
If there is a reason we should state so in the SPEC file so people retain that information.
PS Are you sure you don't want RPMforge commit access ?

Let me explain :-)
When I tested the -2 version of the iwl3945 firmware, it did not work for me and I had to go back to the -1.

I'm sure Ned would love to have the access. :D
