At least he removed the link! Still a dickish thing to do in the first place though!

David Gnedt,
Thanks for the driver patch, I'm looking forward to the link so I can try it out. I've tried the wl1251 driver which supposedly does injection at the cost of draining the battery, but to no avail. I made sure to do my part and throw some money your way. I'm sure it'll be worth every penny

Update: I confirmed that injection is working, as I can associate to with the AP while in monitor mode. However, when I run `nice yes | nice aireplay-ng -5 -b "00:14:BF:2A:5C:00" -h "3C:F7:2A:2B:3D:F9" "wlan0"` on the N900, it eventually results in the wlan0 interface going down. Running the exact same command on my laptop works fine (which is using the ath9k driver, which also has the injection patch). Has anyone else ran into this problem? If so, have you found a solution, or a workaround?

That's a good way to test. I followed the instructions in the README (only the required steps and the customized osso-wlan step). After rebooting and running `sh load.sh` I ran the same test using aireplay-ng and it confirmed that injection was working. I'm not sure what's wrong in your case. Try checking to see if the driver is loaded using `lsmod`, that the interface is up `ifconfig wlan0` and make sure the card is in monitor mode using `iwconfig wlan0`. Also, don't foget that you need to run load.sh each time you reboot (unless you make some changes to run this automatically on boot).

+1 for Chrome petition, I can't get to boot in multiboot either

Ive donated. Looking forward to testing.

N900 gets better & better!

I left my wifi on with the new driver loaded over night and I was greeted by 0.4% charge this morning, I had 80% last night..
I can't say definitively yet but this driver seems to use quite a bit more battery than the default one when left to idle.

If you'd unload the drives when you don't need the drivers, will you still have bad battery? Surely you rarely need these drivers all the time on?

This looks interesting, to say the least.

I'm thinking about donating and getting a copy, but before I do so, I would like to see confirmation of the argument happening on the last two pages, namely: Are the patches GPL'd or not?
lxp, could you please give a definitive answer here? I assume they -are- GPL, but confirmation would make me a lot happier.

I just want to ask what is the difference between this patch and the folder, that came with neopwn(packet_injection), because I was able to install everything from "packet_injection" and inject in all channels and capture a handshake and injection is ok.? Do I need this patch?
