Hi,support of newAre there any changelogs for these firmware files? Dotheyonly offer support for newer chips, or are there anyactualimprovements and bug fixes implemented? Users shouldknowwhether updating the firmware will be of any use tothem.
Shiang Tu from ralink says [1] :
"We always suggest to use latest firmware, because it's backward
compatible and also has some enhancement, bug fix, or
chip.
Sorry, but how very ... Microsoft-y of Ralink.
Something has changed, a bug, an improvement, but we are to
guess what it is?
Maybe if people knew how these firmware files affect
different generations of chips, they'd knew how to maintain
them better. I think this contributes to the mess here.
First of all, thanks for all for the great help to make Ralink chipset can
work well in Linux.
In deed, restricted by the limited resources, Ralink didn't involve in the
rt2x00 project development closely for long time and the rt2x00 project
developers and free contributors only can get limited information from
Ralink's open source code. I think that' why make the situation becomes
a little bit complicate. Sorry for that.
Now we try to work closely with rt2x00 project, we also will sumbit latest
frimware to linux-firmware once have any updates. We are newbie to work
with open source community, if we have any problem, your kindly help will
be highly appreciated.
