Ah. Thanks for pointing that out. I read about that IBSS vs. AHDM a few
months ago, but I didn't know that Apple uses different modes in
different versions of the driver. I'll add this info.
But wait -- I could just set up a Wiki, so we can all work on the FAQ
together. What do you think?

This touches another question which is not answered yet (imho). Is the
source available? Where can it be found? Laurent said that it's on
Hiroshi's site, but I can't find it.
