[PATCH] AR2427 wifi

[PATCH] AR2427 wifi

[Peter Kosyh]

Hello!
I have uploaded all my patches to https://github.com/gl00my/plan9hacks/
eeepc-nics.patch - port of alc ethernet module and athn module from openbsd.

athn module now supports only AR2427. It is not clean and can not be
included in 9front, but it works just fine (few days w/o any problems). So
if someone is interested in to add another atheros cards it can be a good
start point.

Another patch is cpi-lcd.patch - add lcd brightness control via _BCM _BQC
ACPI methods

There are also some personal patches like kbd-layout switcher via
caps-lock, russian spell checker lua script and something else...

Bith best regards,
Peter.

Ooh! That is awesome. I have an AR9565 on my laptop which is basically the only
bit that is not working on my 9front install. Good to see that some atheros work
is being done :)

Now I just use an ethernet cable when I work with 9front.
