Have you manage to upgrade the kernel to include the new wireless drivers?

We're on 2.6.35 in MeeGo. And don't even bother trying to backport it to run Fremantle, things have moved too much on in kernel interfaces.

And which one do I have to install the opensource or the closed for nokia? Do both support wifi?

We don't distinguish between open or closed anymore. All our blobs are redistributable.

Have you tried the iw command in stead of the iwconfig? The difference is the netlink support in mac80211 which was not enabled in 2.6.28

Besides that, is there any crosscompilation environment like scratchbox?

I have compiled kernel 2.6.28 and compat-wireless for the n900, but still i'm not able to get it working.
I have seen in meego that they use wl1251_spi driver, so after compiling and installing I have uploaded this module on the maemo-n900. The result is ... no wlan interface is outhere.
The modules are up and dmesg doesn't display anything strange.
Any idea? I was thinking on coping directly the modules from meego, but as they are from a different kernel version they are not gonna work.
Help is welcome
