WPA + Airport status?
Hi,

I would like to know if someone got wpa_supplicant to work with
Airport. From my understanding it could support hermes if some
file is obtained elsewhere and the package is rebuilt to support
it. From a thread on the Gentoo forum, some people tried but
did not succeed:

Just wondering if someone got it to work...

A good place to ask this and/or look also is the Debian-PPC
(debian-powerpc@lists.debian.org) mailing list or archive. Ben
Herrenschmidt is the go-to guy for the powerpc kernels, and I am not
sure what all lists he uses but I know he is on that one, and uses
Debian, and furthermore I have heard from other people that use
different distro's that they hang on that list because it often has the
best patches for hardware. I am not sure if they are commited to source
trees, but I have seen many of them posted as text.
