    there's a lot of work still to be done: it's mostly a reverse
    engineering effort from scratch because rtl won't say how the chip
    works.

    the 8211 chips is also used in one of the mini wireless boxes so
    yes they will at some time.

    thanks

    If you want the driver included please tell the author to submit it
    upstream. From looking at the code this will need significant polishing
    to meet the kernel code quality guidelines.

    Truth, honesty and respect are rare commodities that all spring from
    the same well: Love. If you love yourself and everyone and everything
    around you, funnily and coincidentally enough, life gets a lot better.
