http://195.66.192.167/linux/acx_patches/current/Changelog:

[20050807]
* restart scan if AP is not found
* remove use_eth_name parameter. It was deprecated
* disable legacy firmware loader for 2.6. Driver printed a warning
  about need to switch to hotplug.
* WARNING: new names for firmware images!
  Driver will try to load the following images:
  PCI driver:
    'tiacxNNNcMM' (NNN=100/111, MM=radio module ID (in uppercase hex)):
    combined firmware for specified chipset and radio.
    failing that, it will try to load images named
    'tiacxNNN' (NNN=100/111): main firmware for specified chipset
    and 'tiacxNNNrMM': corresponding radio module.
    For example, my firmware is in file named 'tiacx111c16'.
    Alternatively, I may remove it and use pair of files
    'tiacx111' and 'tiacx111r16' instead.
  USB driver: loads image named 'tiacx100usb'
  Hint: you can keep both old and new image names (via symlinks
  or just by copying files) if you need to run older driver.
* fix "Debug: sleeping function called from invalid context..." for USB
* ACX_{PCI,USB} -> CONFIG_ACX_{PCI,USB} in preparation to 2.6 merge
* version bump to 0.2.4
