Do you need to use this with Kernel power? Can't it be done with stock kernel?
Kernel power makes my hildon-home goes nuts every 24hours. Stock kernel still doing good after 3days.

how can you check the bleeding edge is in use?
with the applet when I select it to go to stock it says "stock already in use"

thanks

If you are using bleeding edge drivers this shouldn't output anything:
Code:

cat /proc/modules | grep wl12xx
I seem have forgotten to add one line to postinst so it might give error about rights when enabling drivers.
This should fix it:
Code:

update-sudoers
Uploaded 0.1.0-3 which has this fixed.

Yes you have to use it with kernel-power. Stock doesn't support the right cfg80211 module (i.e. one that's a module and not statically compiled in).

f2that, as root:
Code:

lsmod|grep "wl12"
If there's a wl1251-spi in there, then most likely, the bleeding-edge one is loaded completely and correctly.
